Azalea Bonsai care

In this video we explain how to care for your Azalea Bonsai tree, also known as the Rhododendron. Watering, pruning, fertilizing - all these topics are discussed. Keeping an Azalea Bonsai alive is not a difficult task, but there are a few things you should be aware of. For more information, also check:
www.bonsaiempi...
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!
If you are not entirely sure about your tree species, you can use this guide to ID your Bonsai:

Hi, I'd like to add some advice for anyone living in a hot/dry location. Don't keep an azalea in full-on direct sunlight from spring through autumn. They just don't cope with intense dry heat. It'll do better on the shaded side of your house, as long as it is outside. And although you *can* repot in early summer after flowering, in a hot climate it's much safer to do it in late winter or early spring.

Thanks!

I am in Arizona, Phx metro - would direct sunlight be good this time of year? Highs are maybe mid 70’s, lows are teetering in the 50’s. Thinking of leaving it outside during the day and bringing it in at night as it starts to dip more

[@BlueSkyBonsai]

@@Caswagna93 it's probably ok at this time of year. But don't worry if you get some yellowing leaves, the older leaves need to drop. I leave mine outside at night even down to freezing temperatures.

[@Caswagna93]

@@BlueSkyBonsai thank you!

[@sweetkitty4963]

thanks for the video. my azalea was losing a bunch of leaves and i had no idea why, but i've narrowed it down to moving it indoors during the night time. going to leave it outside until rainfall

Azalea bonsai care... Great bonsai trees.. thanks for sharing 🙏

[@RubyvuBonsai]

awesome root system!

[@Sassannid]

What a great looking bonsai. The trunk is so beautiful. Do all Azalea bonsais develop such trucks with the wire look?

Hi! Why does the trunk look like that? Are these aerial roots?

[@bonsaiempire]

The soil was washed away over the course of several years, it is a style often used for Azalea bonsai.

[@mahakhalil1]

@@bonsaiempire Ah! Thanks for the explanation! I'd like to try and replicate that slowly with my own baby azaleas!

[@TheYoyojamer]

@Bonsai Empire just wondering how you are able to get the roots to grow in that manner

[@bonsaiempire]

It takes a long time, and slowly you take away soil (over many years)

[@christopherhilliard3681]

Did you grow it in a tube or is that just from root training

How do I apply for these bonsai courses if I am living in a different country because when I went to enroll myself it showed dollars I don’t have dollars

[@RubyvuBonsai]

So you can learn by youtube like this channel, or even go to my channel :)

[@bonsaiempire]

The courses are all online, and your creditcard should be able to pay in USD and convert it to your local currency. Contact us through our website if you need assistance!

[@gomeyay13]

It is snowing outside where I live, I have my azalea bonsai indoors. What would you recommend for those who live in a climate where the seasons change the temperature drastically

[@carrie471]

I live in northern Minnesota so I too am wondering what or how to take care of it during our cold months (which basically is 4 months). Please, if you found out how to care for yours inside, can you pass it along? I sure would appreciate it! Thanks!

Какая красотища. Я точно хочу такое сделать.

[@tahmidahsan4431]

Does Azalea grows in tropical climate like South Asia?

[@dn2817]

Probably not. Too hot.

[@Omar-al-Farouk]

Wow👍😍

[@questionablecooking7019]

What method of water filtering do you reccomend? A RO system? Thanks.

[@bonsaiempire]

Yes, a reverse osmosis system would work - though rain water might be easier.

[@questionablecooking7019]

@@bonsaiempire thanks .... rainwater barrels take up a bunch of space and sort of eye sore for me... plus, damn mosquitos, so I'm looking at other options. Thank you.

[@diego02l427]

Is it possible to keep the bonsai in the same pot? If its possible I would like to keep it in a small pot but if not that's okay.

[@bonsaiempire]

Sure thing. It depends on your goal and your tree. If you maintain its shape, the current pot would be OK to use.

[@JesusChrist4ever]

The leaves in my Azalea have turns purple n reddish is this normal or bad :/

[@bonsaiempire]

Where do you keep it and at what temperatures?

[@nprabashwara3815]

Can you add subtitles in you videos

[@iwanfauzi9029]

Me indonesia hadir

[@anthonygriffin6868]

40°F or -5°C?

[@bonsaiempire]

Woops! We meant -5°C or 23°F - you should protect your Azaleas if temperatures drop below this temperature in winter. Thanks for pointing this out!
