Grandpa spent ten years making bonsai, each one more beautiful than the last, the most expensive can sell for 100,000 yuan

Grandpa loves bonsai very much, because bonsai can give people a sense of beauty, cultivate character and bring happiness, so Grandpa likes them very much. Grandpa is very dedicated to the things he loves, and he spent ten years on bonsai care; some bonsai can sell for around 100,000 yuan. Let's take a look together!

1. Buddhist Pine (Podocarpus macrophyllus 'Maki') bonsai

When we care for Buddhist Pine bonsai, the soil we choose is mainly soil from mountain forests, because this kind of soil is very rich in nutrients and the plants grow very fast. To make bonsai, the tree species we need are all very small, because this makes them very easy to shape and very beautiful, and once made they can also sell for a very high price!

2. Azalea (Rhododendron) bonsai

Anyone who has grown azalea bonsai knows that during the care process, the azalea's branches grow very straight rather than crooked, so their ornamental value is very poor and they cannot sell for a good price. To improve the ornamental value of azalea bonsai, simple pruning and wiring are needed: in the first two years, wiring is the main method, and afterward pruning is the main method. For new stumps, the new branches are not pruned in the first year; for those growing well, the branches can be bent according to the styling requirements before the branches have fully lignified, and then pruned after the branches thicken. Bending and wiring in autumn is better than in spring; in autumn the branches contain relatively less water and are less likely to break!

3. Bougainvillea bonsai

The most important reason bougainvillea bonsai is loved by many people is the shape and color of the flowers. Bougainvillea is mainly purple, and flowers of this color are rarely seen, so many people like them very much when making bonsai. But when making bougainvillea bonsai, be sure to loosen the soil and repot. Because of long-term watering, fertilizing and rain washing, the potting soil of bougainvillea tends to become compacted, so the soil must be loosened regularly, and weeds in the potting soil should be removed at the same time, to help the bougainvillea grow. When bougainvillea grows well, many different shapes can be created, so it gains more people's love and can also sell for a very high price!

So have you learned all these bonsai care and making techniques? Friends who like them can try giving it a go; maybe the bonsai you make can also sell for a very high price
