For bonsai, it is best grown in bright, indirect light. You can grow in a larger container at first to speed up trunk development. Tolerant of poor soils, salts, and coastal conditions. While a fantastic bonsai start, this plant will grow to full proportions if planted in the ground.Good drainage is essential for this plant to thrive. It needs medium amounts of supplemental water once established. Irrigate by watering deeply and then allowing the top several inches of soil to dry between waterings. This encourages the plant to send roots deep into the earth in search of moisture, helping it to become established, prevent root rot, build drought tolerance, and resilience to heat and cold. The length of time between waterings will vary depending on your growing conditions and environment.These plants are sold for the purposes of ornamental cultivation. Any other uses are at the discretion of the buyer. Seller is not responsible for any harm or injury caused by improper handling or ingestion of the plant. Our plants are shipped with considerable personal time, cost, and careful attention so that they will arrive at their destination in good health, intact, and ready to adapt to a new environment. Orders will be processed and shipped within 7 business days. We have heat packs available for purchase with your order if you expect freezing temperatures the week your plant is shipped. The pot or rootball will be specially packed to prevent loss of moisture during the shipping process, but will still need to be unwrapped, and watered-in directly upon arrival to prevent further stress. Use caution when unpacking plants with sharp spines or thorns. Keep in a shady location protected from the sun and wind if not immediately transplanting. Plants can experience some stress during shipping and may experience a few damaged or yellow leaves. However, if the plant has sustained significant damage, please report the damage within seven days of delivery, including photographs of the damaged plant, and we will contact you as soon as possible. We will not accept responsibility for damaged plants once they have been transplanted. I am happy to answer any questions about combined shipping discounts for bulk purchases.
