Azalea Bonsai in bloom
Specific care guidelines
Position: Place the Azalea at a bright spot, but not in full afternoon sun.
During wintertime, protect the tree from freezing temperatures.
Watering: General watering practice is fine, but note that the Azalea
Bonsai dislikes hard-water. Rainwater can be a better solution.
Feeding: Once every two or three weeks during its growth season. If the
tree flowers, quit feeding altogether.
Repotting: Every two years, after flowering comes to an end. Apply a
special soil which is lime-free.
Propagation: From cuttings during summer.
