- Growing Difficulty
- Advanced
- Lifespan
- 100+ years
- Size
- 30-100cm
- Light & Placement
- Strong direct sun is essential. The trunk naturally leans toward the sun as it grows, so keep the pot facing the same direction.
- Watering
- Water sparingly even in the growing season. Water only after the soil has dried well, and since growth is very slow, do not overdo it.
- Dormancy Care
- Withhold water during dormancy and keep it dry. It tends toward winter growth, so judge the growing and dormant periods by watching the leaves.
- Soil & Repotting
- An ultra-fast-draining mix is essential. Use a quick-drying blend based on pumice and hyuga pumice, and keep repotting to a minimum to avoid root damage.
- Pests & Cautions
- Its greatest weakness is summer heat and humidity. In summer, keep it in a cool, well-ventilated spot and avoid stagnant humidity and wet soil.
