Advice for October
The weather is moderating here in these great United
States. Just a few days ago we hit the mark of equal
day length and equal nights which means that most
of our deciduous Bonsai will say to themselves that
they need to put on a pretty face and show their
Autumn colors.
If
you haven’t gotten your 0-10-10 fertilizer
into your Bonsai supply chest then by all means
get it very soon, because your Bonsai does not
normally react quickly to fertilization this time
of year. You are trying to direct your Bonsai into
a very happy, healthy dormancy during the winter.
Even Evergreen Bonsai go into a state of suspended
animation (of course not as openly expressed as
deciduous Bonsai) during the winter months. It
is important that you withhold Nitrogen from
the fertilization regimen because any drops of
temperature can easily kill or disfigure new,
tender growth. O-10-10 fertilizer Click

If
you haven’t gotten your humidity trays
or drip trays then now’s a good time to check
out our supply of sizes. These particular trays
have small feet or nubs which keep the tray from
touching the wood or other table surfaces to keep
any water from damaging them. And….. again
remember not to let water accumulate in the tray.
You can drown your Bonsai if it sits in water.

New Article by Thomas J.
Thomas
J. has again helped us to help you with an excellent
Article on Juniper Bonsai. This is a great subject
because most of us start with a Juniper and then
branch out and out and out. Please check out this
very informative article and bookmark it so you
can read it over again and glean new insight into
this wonderful hobby of ours. We do thank Thomas
J. for helping all of us along the way to enjoying
Bonsai.

Now
what’s happening here at
Dallas Bonsai Garden
We
will send out a special email within the next few
days announcing some new and great items that are
coming from Japan. This is a teaser, a preview
of coming attractions as it were, because we don’t
have them in the warehouse just yet. We can’t
reveal just what they are now because that would
spoil the fun and the excitement of learning just
what’s new from Japan in the way of Bonsai
Stuff. There will be new tools and new supplies that
you do need to add to your tool chest. Stay tuned…..
