Bonsai placement and lighting at home

It is better to place your bonsai on a sunny window. It is important to make sure that you use tropical dwarf tree species (they grow best indoors). Such plants need warmth (room temperature is quite suitable for them). In summer, it is acceptable to place the trees on the balcony or in the garden.

Rotate the bonsai slightly from time to time. This is necessary for its harmonious development, as all branches will receive sufficient light.

Lighting is especially important for indoor bonsai, so they should be turned every day. It is necessary to protect the plant from direct sunlight, which dries out the soil and damages the foliage.

Avoid keeping indoor bonsai in direct sunlight, as direct sun will dry out the soil excessively and damage the foliage.

To create the most comfortable conditions for bonsai grown indoors, it is necessary to provide light similar to sunlight. Special lamps, often calledphytolampsand are used in greenhouses. Phytolamps can be fluorescent, LED, DNaT. Often, ordinary lamps are sold under the guise of lamps for plants, which do not give the desired effect.
