Cultivation methods and precautions of Australian fir bonsai

Australian fir is actually very easy to grow. First of all, you need to ensure the right temperature. It is not cold-resistant and is prone to frostbite when the temperature is below zero degrees. Therefore, the indoor temperature must be kept above 5 degrees to safely survive the winter. In the normal rapid growth season, the temperature must be kept between 15 and 25 degrees to achieve the fastest growth.

How to grow Australian fir bonsai

The Australian fir likes sunlight. After you buy it home, you should place it in an environment with scattered light to allow it to receive a certain amount of sunlight, but avoid strong light exposure because it is very fragile now and easily sunburned.

Excessive watering can easily lead to root waterlogging, so just water it appropriately.

3. Pruning and maintenance

Australian fir can have a beautiful shape after pruning. If it is cultivated for a long time, it can develop

During the growth process, in order to prevent the main trunk from tilting to one side, it is advisable to rotate the pot once half a month to allow the plant to receive light evenly.
