Holly bonsai can quickly adapt to a variety of locations. Holly will grow in filtered or shaded sunlight to full sun. The more sun the plant receives the denser the foliage will become. Water moderately, keeping the tree moist at all times. Holly does not enjoy remaining dry for long periods of time. Holly enjoys occasional misting, except when it is under full sun. Holly may be repotted throughout most of the year, although, the best times for repotting are in the spring. After repotting, water thoroughly and keep the plant in a shady location for several weeks so that new roots may grow. Holly is adaptable to a variety of soil and moisture conditions. Fertilize your bonsai once monthly. We recommend using a bonsai fertilizer.When pruning, prune back to 2-4 leaves after 6-10 leaves have grown.
