Satsuki Azalea bonsai have been grown in Japan for centuries and are widely considered the premiere variety for this use. They bloom later in the spring than other types; producing generous quantities of bright pink blossoms. Satsuki Azaleas are easily styled and deliver an attractive presentation year round. Blooms May - June. Always protect blooms from freezing. Thrives outdoors above 20 degrees with protection; see Bonsai Care.
Spring is the best time to repot. Repot young trees (up to 10 years) every other year. Repot older trees every 3-4 years. In the tropics it can be done at any time if given proper after care. Always allow the soil to become dry before repotting and do not water it until new growth appears. Keep it in a semi-shaded location until new growth begins, then place it in its normal location. Good drainage is most important.
