About this Flowering Okinawa Holly Bonsai, 7 Years Old (Malpighia coccigera)
7 years old, 8-9" tall This delightful miniature holly which also produces small, white flowers in spring and summer is native to the northern hemisphere. Its small, glossy, serrated evergreen leaves provide year round interest and make it a good candidate for bonsai.
Indoor bonsai care
We don’t have a species care guide for this tree yet, so here is what holds true for any indoor bonsai, start here and adjust as you learn the plant:
- Light
- The brightest window you have. Insufficient light is the most common way an indoor bonsai dies, slowly, over months, and it looks like nothing is wrong until it is.
- Water
- Check daily by touching the soil; water thoroughly when the surface is just dry, never on a fixed schedule.
- Humidity
- Indoor air is drier than any tropical plant likes. A humidity tray helps; sitting in standing water does not.
- Temperature
- Keep it away from radiators, heat vents and cold draughts from doors.
Read the indoor bonsai guide, how to water a bonsai, and diagnose a problem by symptom if something looks wrong. You can also browse the species we do have care guides for.
