Please note: Delivery dates may be delayed if temperatures are too low to protect plant quality and prevent freezing. Our blooming plants are subject to their natural growth cycles (typically April to June). Depending on when you place your order, your plant(s) may arrive without blooms. Pot color may vary from image.
This Barbados Cherry has a small dark evergreen leaf. The extremely vibrant pink and yellow blooms appear between April and October. The growth habit of this bonsai makes it a fun trimming project that is easy to maintain. Water the soil of your bonsai properly by using a watering can or hose attachment that has a fine-spray end. You should thoroughly soak your bonsai’s soil. Water should be running out of the drain holes. You can also submerge the pot in standing water for a few minutes to fully saturate the soil. Aim to maintain even soil moisture. Misting foliage periodically is recommended but should not be considered watering. General care is also important to maintaining a beautiful bonsai. Bonsai should be periodically trimmed to keep their miniature shape. To best understand trimming and wiring techniques, we recommend purchasing an instructional book.
Winter Care. Your Barbados Cherry bonsai needs to remain indoors in the winter and should not be allowed to experience temperatures below 40. Place the tree directly in front of a bright window but away from HVAC vents. For temperatures above 60 degrees, we recommend that you bring your Barbados Cherry outdoors to a patio, deck or porch where it will receive morning sun and afternoon shade.
Fertilizing. Fertilizing Barbados Cherry bonsai is required. Most water-soluble and time released fertilizers work very well when used as directed.
Insects and Diseases. Insects and diseases can attack your Barbados Cherry bonsai just like any other plant. Inspect your bonsai regularly. A brisk spraying of the trunk and foliage will periodically help keep your tree clean. If any problems appear, most garden centers have products available for treatment.
