The layered section was a lower branch that would not be suitable for the final design of the tree. We started the layer about 2 months ago and it had already established a good number of roots. Nothing fancy went into the prep work. I believe we used one side of a shear to shed the bark down to the cambium, then spread rooting hormone over the section and covered it in moist sphagnum moss and a section of a plastic. We then placed wire around the bag to tighten the seal and conserve the moisture.

The care of Bonsai is different than houseplants and will require different techniques to grow and create. Bonsai generally is not a houseplant. It is kept outdoors and on occasion can be brought indoors for enjoyment. These plants need proper light, moisture, temperature, humidity, nutrients, and maintenance to be successfully grown.
