Brachychiton rupestris 'Bottle Tree'

This Australian native species is an all time favorite! Commonly called the 'Bottle Tree' they develop a swelled trunk that can greatly surpass the width of their canopy! When saplings their trunks have the perfect character for a shallow Bonsai.

Care:

We recommend watering only when the pot is nearly dry. The watering schedule may be between 7-10 days depending on your growing conditions. They prefer bright indirect light but they can handle 2-3 hours of direct sun in the morning or evening. They do NOT do well when in lower light conditions! When repotting, use a semi-coarse or chunky soil.
