Bonsai with modest light and training requirements are in this group.

Easy care bonsai tree. All of the bonsai trees listed in our indoor recommendations category are also very easy to maintain indoors but will require more natural light from a window. Once the air bubbles have risen to the top the bonsai has absorbed enough water. Humidity is also an important consideration for the health of the bonsai. We consider most flowering fruiting bonsai trees more difficult to care for in that they require more direct sun from a sunny window sill bay window or placed outdoors in moderate 50 degrees or above temperatures.

The key is to prune the roots and the foliage so the plant remains or is pruned to be dwarfed. An easy care solution is to set your bonsai tree on a pebble tray. Almost any tree or shrub can be turned into a bonsai. Approximately once a week or so when the topsoil feels completely dry immerse the entire bonsai plant in a bucket or basin of water.

Flowering bonsai like the gardenia bonsai are great for adding variety and fragrance to your bonsai collection. Place your bonsai pot on top of the pebbles and as the water evaporates it will create humidity around the plant.
