Your trees’ health starts below the pot line. This class takes an in-depth look at a multitude of soil components, organic versus chemical fertilizers, mycorrhiza, and root health. Maximizing growth and maintaining tree health is key to creating quality bonsai. March is a great time to repot, so bring a tree in for repotting; soil will be made and provided for the class.
