Description

Growing chili peppers is already one of our favorite hobbies, but did you know that they are perennial trees and with the right care you can transform them into magnificent bonsai plants that grow with you all year long! Come learn about the basics of growing your own bonsai plant as well as a bunch of tips and tricks to be successful. We will cover Bonsai history, styles, tools, pruning, shaping, wiring, repotting, watering, fertilizing, pest control and soil blends. Feel free to bring your own bonsai tree and we will have additional ones available for sale. We are still in the process of creating our stock of "Bonchi"- Bonsai Chilis, but take a look here for inspiration! Cultivate the City is an urban farming company based in Washington DC.
