Bonsai In Bangladesh

First, let's say what is bonsai. Bonsai is the process of constantly cutting down trees which are normally very large in their natural environment and keeping them small. This type of art is usually found in Japan and China. But in Bangladesh, it is very less. Many people have a hobby of bonsai, but because the price of bonsai is excessive, many people cannot buy this tree themselves. This article is mainly for those who cannot buy bonsai due to lack of money.

Considering Bangladesh's climate, making bonsai of banyan trees is relatively easy. So I am starting with the process of making bonsai of banyan trees first.

First of all, cuttings of botanic plants should be collected. Such trees are naturally found on the walls of many old houses around us. The plants growing in this wall do not die easily and can survive in many adverse environments. They are known as survivor trees. Such trees should be collected and planted in the common soil of the garden. Leaves will start growing normally within 10 days. First, the plant should be allowed to grow well with more fertilizer. After the stem becomes thick, it should be cut into smaller and preferred sizes. In this way, every few months, it should be cut and brought to the desired shape.

After a few years, the shape of the stem is good, and the shape of the root should be fixed. For this reason, the proper soil for bonsai should be prepared first. It should be remembered that this time soil with more fertilizer cannot be used. This time the soil will have more small brick pieces and sand and less garden soil. In this case, spread-shaped containers should be used which have less depth. Once transferred to this container, it should be watered regularly, no fertilizer is required. The soil should be changed once every year. You can find more details by searching on YouTube.

Considering the climate of Bangladesh and the demand for banyan trees, the time around the monsoon season is best for planting and repotting bonsai.
