Azalea satsuki Nikko - B6152
€80.00
VAT included
Native to Japan, the Azalea satsuki ‘Nikko’ is an evergreen cultivar highly regarded in bonsai for its compact growth habit, excellent ramification, and abundant flowering. Its small, medium-green leaves form a dense and well-balanced canopy, while the spring blooms—typically white to soft blush tones—bring an elegant and luminous seasonal presence.
Light: Prefers bright, filtered light or partial shade. Protection from strong direct sun, especially during midday hours, helps prevent damage to foliage and flowers.
Watering: Requires consistent watering, keeping the substrate evenly moist. Does not tolerate prolonged dryness; the root ball should never be allowed to dry out completely.
Humidity: Thrives in humid environments. Regular misting is recommended, particularly during warm, dry periods and throughout flowering.
Pruning: Prune immediately after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Avoid late pruning, as flower buds develop on new shoots.
Fertilization: Apply a fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants after flowering and throughout the active growing season. Reduce feeding towards the end of summer and stop in autumn.
Repotting: Every 2–3 years, preferably just after flowering, using a well-draining, acidic substrate suitable for azaleas (kanuma-based mixes are ideal).
Flowering: Flowers abundantly from late spring to early summer. The main ornamental value lies in the delicate light-coloured blooms, compact foliage, and overall harmony of the tree.
