This is an excellent video. I live in a condo and have very little room for plants. This a a great alternative to plants. The suggestions you made are also helpful which repotting any plant. Thank you.

It could be serveral different problems, disease, pests, too much water, too little water, too much sun (cant really happen but with some plants) or no sun. Could be trying to enter dormant period, might need repotting. Yellow and dead leaves is a sign that the tree is not growing in certain areas or it is not getting enough nutrients. Most of the time its a water or soil related issue.

i would realy appriciate it if you could help me with this
my bonsai tree’s leaves keep turning yellow and falling off every few days some times weeks
im not too sure on the type on tree but i keep it in day light but not on my window sill as it gets too hot on sunny day, but i keep it near the window when it’s not the brightest of days..i have 3 bonsai tree’s and the other two do not seem to have this problem
do you have any tips .. Please

What happened to the saftey wire? I wrapped mine around the tree a few times and between a couple of roots but left enough space to breath. Is this ok or there a recommended technique? Help would be appreciated.

how do you repot bonsai if you already have the pot full of moss ? i did see some of your bonsai with moss right to the edge i have been told not to do that as the soil cannot breath is that correct or not ????
October 18th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Nice vids. but you forgot to tell us that you CUT the extra roots of!!!!!!!!!!!!
An important part of repotting has NOT been mentioned…???
October 18th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
thanks for your vids, they help lots!
October 18th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
i think he did trim it but it wasnt shown on the video
and apparently if you dont want it to grow fast or bigger. you trim it…other wise if you want rapid growth u dont trim them and put it in a larger pot
October 18th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
how do you get moss to grow like that?
October 18th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
