Escallonia Bonsai Tree Care
Location
Outdoor bonsai tree. Site in full sun or partial shade in summer. Frost protection may be wise in winter.
Watering
Water daily during growing season. Keep moist during winter.
Pruning
Prune back after flowering, as you may well prune off the flowers if too much pruning is done early in the year.
Although Escallonia are evergreen trees, each leaf does not live forever. Old leaves from previous years growth will yellow and fall away. Keep the bonsai looking smart by removing these old leaves from the tree and the soil surface. This will help to encourage light into the crown, aiding new growth.
Feeding
Feed every two weeks from spring to autumn, using a mild fertiliser at around NPK 555. You can also use a slow release fertiliser such as Naruko.
Repotting
Repot every couple of years using a standard bonsai soil mix.
