Wondering About Growing a Cherry Bonsai?

Cherry trees make a very strong case as starter material for bonsai cultivation.
The fact that it bears small flowers with very pleasant scent makes it more appealing to be grown as a bonsai tree.
If you have set your mind on cherry bonsai for your project then it is better to have a good idea on the basic caring regimen required for the plant.
They do well when kept in full sun, but during peak summer months keep them under the shade of a bigger tree.
As with almost all bonsai trees, cherry bonsai need good amount of watering, and prefer a moist soil.
Avoid drying out the soil completely in between the watering schedules.
The frequency and amount of watering will vary according the time of the year as well, for example during the summer months you might have to water your trees for as much as three times a day, while in the winters it would be only on a need basis.
Since cherry bonsai is a flower bearing variety it would need to be fed more frequently than other kinds, but avoid feeding the tree during the bloom season.
Also avoid feeding the tree during the dormant season as well, because the plants needs are very limited during this time.
It is best to re pot your cherry bonsai once every two years, use a good quality soil for your new pot.
Re potting is often very stressful on the plants and so you need to be careful while carrying out the process of re potting.
With the exception of broom style, cherry bonsai is suitable for almost all the other styles.
