Light:

Full sun. The higher the light the better.

Temperature:

Minimum indoor temperature above 40°F.

Humidity:

Not an issue.

Watering:

Water when the soil is visually dry. More dryness will create a bushy plant. Saturate thoroughly until water runs out of the pot. Keep in a clay pot, which will help maintain a healthy root system.

Fertilizer:

Minimal fertilizer, once every two months. A dilute solution of ¼ tsp/gallon of a balanced fertilizer (ie: 5-10-3, 7-9-5, 10-10-10).

Pruning:

The plant is a trailing vine so to maintain it as a bonsai it needs to be periodically trimmed. Without regular pruning the plant will vine.

Not susceptible.

Comments:

Restriction of water and high light creates a bushy specimen. A fast growing, instant bonsai can be enjoyed with this senecio. Culture is the key.
