How to fertilize Nanking Cherry
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Nanking Cherry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I’m into growing some plants other than plain houseplants I also have a peach tree which are thriving

Propagation pay off! I took a cutting from my Weeping Fuji Cherry bonsai back at the end of June, and finally earlier this week I was able to transplant it into its own pot with bonsai soil. It’s going to live indoors under a grow light until next spring when I’ll transition it outdoors. #bonsai #Propagation #WeepingCherry

Yellow leaves on skip laurels I have a few skip laurels that were planted in the fall and properly watered until the ground froze. Looked good all winter but now they are all developing yellow leaves. I thought it might be wind burn at first but it seems to be getting worse. Do I need to water?

Why yellow leaves?

The leaves are folded inwards on every leaf. It has grown that way. The leaves are waxy and not dry, but they are not broad, and as I said, fold inwards. What can I do to improve this? Or is this normal plum tree behavior? #AmericanPlumTree

Weeping cherry leaves are shrinking?

I'm a newbie bonsai owner.. I believe these are deciduous, but since I keep mine indoors - should it still be dropping all it's leaves?? I don't know how to check if it's still alive without causing damage #JapaneseFloweringCherry
