๐ŸŒธ Chojubai, Quince White #2524

Left Coast Bonsai, $35. Young stock. Will develop a white cluster.

The Chaenomeles, commonly known as Flowering Quince or Japanese Quince, is a cherished species in bonsai cultivation known for its beautiful blossoms.

Select a sunny location for your Chaenomeles, ensuring it receives lots of sunlight to promote flowering and fruiting. Position the bonsai in a spot with good airflow to prevent fungal diseases, and protect it from strong winds

Wiring can be used to refine the bonsai's structure and create graceful curves, but exercise caution to avoid damaging the delicate branches and remove the wire promptly to prevent wire scars.
