Finicky Fukien Tea: Dave's Bonsai E170

In this episode, I tackle the Finicky Fukien Tea. This tree either grows like a weed or sits there waiting for the next surge. This is one of two trees that I also took a picture a day for the entire year (2021) to see how it grew in one full year of seasons. Take a peek at the progression before I dive into the winter prune in the cozy plant room. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Fukien tea is very finnicky. It definitely prefers being in the ground like a weed. They grow like weeds in my area but if you put them in pots then its hit or miss. I've have a few just crash on me. I decided to work on one in the ground wiring it etc. I will pot it once I get some girth on it.

    That was pretty slick, Dave. And that tree took off in April! I think it might like your indoor setup better than your outdoor bench. Ok, now back to Tank-Pot

    Hi. Do you leave your tree out in the sun light or indoor. I'm planning to buy one fukien next week, so can I keep it indoor in terms that it won't die. I have a room with lots of sunlight

    Sun is always best if you can. But southern facing Windows will still do okay.

    Sadly, no. I lost this tree a while back. The finicky Fukien was too much for me apparently.
