Data sheet

The oak in bonsai is a strong tree with remarkable bark, and we've been growing them for 40 years in our nursery. It's the oak of our countryside, of our forests, and contrary to popular belief, it's perfectly possible to make magnificent bonsai from it. Over the years, it develops a massive trunk with solid carpenter branches that evoke all the power of this tree. It is easy to grow.

Its foliage is marcescent, which means that in autumn, the leaves wither, curl up and turn brown but do not fall off. They will only come off the following spring, driven by the appearance of new foliage.

Cultivation Advice

Outdoors in all seasons. In summer, if you live in a hot region, prefer an eastern exposure with morning sun and afternoon shade.

Abundant during hot weather, the rest of the time water when the top of the substrate is dry. Do not let the root ball dry out and avoid watering the leaves.

Fresh soils rich in organic matter. Repot in the spring, when the buds swell and the first leaves appear.

In winter, remove unnecessary branches by chewing the cuts. During the growing season, prune the shoot green when it has made 5 to 7 leaves.

May to October every 2 months
