The Boxwood Bonsai (Buxus harlandii) is a hardy, broadleaf evergreen that thrives in a bright, sheltered outdoor location, ideally receiving morning sun and afternoon shade, though it can tolerate full sun with consistent watering.Watering is key: allow the topsoil to dry out slightly before soaking thoroughly, as this species is susceptible to root rot if kept continually soggy.Though tolerant of cold, it requires protection from hard frost in winter to prevent root damage in the small pot.Fertilise regularly during the growing season (spring to autumn) with a balanced feed to support its dense, glossy green foliage, and prune often to maintain its compact shape.
