In this Bonsai video I show you how to care for Azalea Bonsai using techniques like; Deadheading, Pruning and Repotting. Azaleas are a popular choice for Bonsai because of their small, delicate leaves and beautiful flowers.
I explain the process of deadheading, a technique that involves removing seed heads to prevent energy wastage on seed production. I cover how to prune your Azalea Bonsai to achieve the desired height and explain the process of pruning for bifurcation. I also show you a method to thicken Azalea trunks using a pond basket and discuss various soil types suitable for Azaleas. Additionally, I demonstrate how and when to repot your Azalea safely (especially in the UK) so that they do not become pot-bound, setting them on their way to becoming a great bonsai.
Azaleas are part of the Rhododendron family, which contains over 1,000 species of plants. They are native to Asia, Europe, and North America, and come in a wide range of colors, from white to pink, red, orange, and even purple. They are a great choice for Bonsai because of their versatility, beauty, and ease of care. With proper training and maintenance, they can thrive for many years, bringing joy and serenity to any space.
