How to care for Ficus microcarpa Ginseng:
Bonsai trees are captivating and beautiful, and aren't as hard to grow as you might think as long as certain rules are followed. They need light, warmth and water to do well. Place them in a light spot away from cold draughts with a constant temperature. Water with tepid soft water or rain water when the soil is just surface dry - do the finger test regularly. They like a humid atmosphere so misting the leaves will help, and lightly trim regularly to keep the shape. If you move these plants, or there is a drop in temperature, then they can drop their leaves. This can happen in the winter, but usually they will reshoot. Please note these plants are not covered by our plant guarantee.
