In this video we explain how to care for your Redwood Bonsai. Watering, pruning, fertilizing - all these topics are discussed. Keeping a (Dawn) Redwood tree (Metasequoia and Sequoia bonsai) alive is not a difficult task, but there are a few things you should be aware of. For more information, also check: https://www.bonsaiempire.com/tree-species/redwood Bonsai trees are planted in small pots with minimal space for water and nutrient reserves. That means you need to water and fertilize your tree regularly. Make sure your Bonsai gets plenty of light, water, and fertilize when needed and your tree is sure to thrive! This video was filmed in the Japanese garden of Clingendael. If you are not entirely sure about your tree species, you can use this guide to ID your Bonsai: https://www.bonsaiempire.com/tree-species Serious about growing your own Bonsai trees?
