Bonsai Repotting Guide: How to Repot Small Maple Bonsai Trees II Wazakura Japan

In this episode of our Repotting Guide, our resident Japanese bonsai artist explains how to repot and create a harmonious small bonsai using two maple saplings
For beginners and professionals alike, bonsai repotting is an important activity in the maintenance and care of bonsai trees. It involves removing the tree from its current pot, trimming the roots, and replanting it in fresh soil in a new pot. This helps to prevent the tree from becoming root-bound and encourages new growth, which is essential for the health and development of the tree. Repotting is typically done once every few years, depending on the age and size of the tree, as well as the type of soil and pot used.

Hi there, thank you for your message. In the video, the bottom soil is a 1:1 mixture of Kiryu and medium Akadama (5-6 mm), The top soil is fine Akadama (1-2 mm) lightly sifted to remove fine particles. Perhaps you can find this soil at gardening stores around you. Make sure the bottom soil should have good drainage, and the top soil should be hard and have good water retention capacity.
