So...This is cute.

Post by bodhidharma »

This Coprosma was layered off the top of my large tree and is a carving project and very early in its development as a Bonsai. I pruned it a few days ago and the sun activated these cuties at its base. Now, that is Cute :cool:

I bought a Coprosma as a shrub. Unfortunately it didn't last long. Are there any secrets to keeping them alive?

Hi F.W, Coprosma are relatively easy to keep alive. Sun, food and water are the main ingredients. :yes:
