Dear Canberra Wind. Thank you for blowing so strongly that you blew my little greenhouse apart.

I arrived home on Monday night to find half my bonsai laying on the ground either partially or totally covered in their potting medium. My little greenhouse had been so badly buffeted by the winds that the shelving had come apart and collapsed. I have re-potted them and given them a good water and not put them in direct sunlight.
Apart from praying to the bonsai gods, is there much else I can do? (A stronger greenhouse in on the cards but I'm moving in 9 days so it will have to wait a bit)

Hi,

You could mist the trees with water a number of times for the first few days and then taper off to none after a week or 9 days. The roots may be not so efficient at getting water to the leave immediately and this would lessen the stress.

Cut down air movement as well. Seasol probably wouldn't hurt either.

Excellent advice from Grant. If i could add it would be to trim any broken twigs and damaged leaves.

Thanks guys.

Luckily Im off the the big B this arvo anyway. I'll pick up some more seasol then.
