Palm Indoor Bonsai Tree

Palm trees make good indoor bonsai tree specimens due to their hardy nature and ease of maintenance. Though palm trees can grow to be quite large, their size can be controlled by pruning the root system. Also, there are many varieties of palm trees that have a miniature or pygmy variant that doesn't grow as large. When potting a palm, you want to select a pot that is large enough to allow the root system to grow and anchor the tree into the growing medium. The above ground portion of the tree will not grow larger than its root system can support. In time, the trunk of the palm will thicken and grow taller until the plant has reached the extent of what the root system can maintain. Daily watering and fertilizing a couple of times a month should keep the palm bonsai beautiful and healthy...along with 4-5 hours of sunlight from a nearby window or patio door. I mist myindoor bonsai tree with a mild  liquid foliar fertilizer (7-9-5, 1/2 tsp. per gallon) and this helps to keep the foliage fresh and green. Last, but certainly not least... a healthy dose of TLC... something all living things want and need... Positively, Truman
