| Hi, I have a Bonsai Tree, Called Sawara Cypress, can you please tell me the proper way to care for it. I have been caring for it the way I was told when I bought it, but some of the leaves seem to be turning brown and drying up. What am I doing wrong? |
| Unfortunately, based on your description I can't tell you what the specific problem is. Bonsai is a fascinating method of growing plants, but it requires a great deal of skill to maintain healthy specimens. The Sawara Cypress (Chamaecyparis pisifera) is a large evergreen tree in nature but can be grown as a bonsai if all of its needs are met. You might wish to look at a book on the general care of bonsais to see if you can provide it the attnetion it needs to thrive. You might also contact the American Bonsai Society, c/o Patricia DeGroot, P.O. Box 1136, Puyallup, WA 98371-1136, (206) 841-8992; web site: http://www.absbonsai.org/ They have several publications available to help you learn to care for your bonsai. You might also find some helpful information through the Internet Bonsai Club http://users.nbn.net/~herrfam/... web site. I hope this helps. |
