Indoor Bonsai have become extremely popular in recent years. Bonsai make excellent gifts because Bonsai are different and say something about you.
Bonsai are very similar to houseplants as they can tolerate indoor conditions, but will need just that extra bit of care and attention if they are to do well.
Most of Bonsai are tropical or semi-tropical species. Bonsai usually require lots of light and fairly constant temperature and humidity. The secret is not to forget to water them!
Do not panic if they lose some leaves in winter. This is quite normal as they are shedding their old leaves to make way for the new ones which will come in the Spring. Species that do well indoors are Podocarpus, Serissa, Jade, Dwarf Jade, Ficus and the ever popular Money Tree.
