Bonsai - Buxus - Sarah - 20cm

2 Year Old Buxus

Buxus, commonly known as boxwood, is a broadleaved evergreen genus of shrubs and small trees. It is native to parts of Europe, Asia, America and Africa.

Buxus, commonly known as boxwood, is an evergreen prized for their dense, compact growth and ability to be shaped into Bonsai.

They have small, dark green, leathery leaves and are known for their tolerance of close shearing, making them ideal for for Bonsai.

The most interesting examples of wild junipers typically have a lot of deadwood, a lot of twists, and a lot of movement. This is what makes them such a great subject and a great inspiration for bonsai. 

Your beautiful rugged Buxus should be left outside in full sun to part shade, they can tolerate coming inside for short (2-3 days) periods of time to impress your guests.

Water regularly to avoid the soil from drying out, the soil must always have some moisture.

In the warmer months of the year, daily watering will be required.

Apply Bonsai Boy's Plant Nourishment fertiliser during the growing season.

The total width of the pot is 9cm wide, and the total height including pot is 22cm.
