Berberis - B6144

Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. With good sun exposure, the foliage develops more intense colors and the tree maintains a tighter, more compact structure.

Watering: Regular watering during the growing season. Once established, it tolerates short dry periods, but performs best in a slightly moist, well-drained substrate.

Humidity: Adapts well to a wide range of humidity levels, provided there is good air circulation. Not particularly demanding.

Pruning: Responds very well to pruning. Regular maintenance pruning is important to control vigorous growth and encourage fine ramification. Care should be taken due to the thorns.

Fertilization: Fertilize from spring through autumn to support growth and recovery after pruning. Reduce feeding during winter.

Repotting: Every 2–3 years, preferably in early spring, using a well-draining bonsai substrate.

Flowering and Fruiting: Produces small yellow flowers in spring, followed by red or bluish berries in autumn. These are highly decorative and add strong seasonal interest to bonsai compositions.
