bonsai a baobab
Hello, I need some information on my baobab. I live in Central Florida and recently picked up what I think will someday be a wonderful baobab bonsai. It has about a 6 inch diam. trunk base and then a 24 inch trunk/stalk. I expected it to quit growing and go dormant, and then I would quit watering over our version of winter. However, either due to our unusually warm weather or just natural for the tree, it continues to sprout new leaves at the top of the stalk. As long as the leaves are green I feel compelled to continue watering (occassionally). It is still planted in the nursery pot which has a good soil mix and dries out quickly. How will I know when it is dormant? Also when is the best time to chop the stalk back? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
