Hi Arabicum Fans;
Most Arabicum growers are pretty worried about how they could start growing Arabicums like bonsai form from seeds.This way could take time but we will be prouder of making this ourselves. You can save time by getting ready Arabicums as bonsai form and maintain them later but this will be expensive way. TodayI would like to share the idea how to create Arabicum followed with Bonsai class. It’s not similar to 100% Bonsai form just look like.
Unfortunately, growing Arabicum following with Bonsai development takes longer time, you must be patient and mentally calm. This could help growers know how to plan growing and maintaining the Arabicums each step based on what the plant form should be on that time. You also have to know what tools or equipments you need to use for each step. You can also use bonsai experiences with Air-Layering and rootstock to apply with Arabicum-Bonsai seedling growing.
The Arabicum hybrids we can mostly use for Bonsai sowing are Arabicum: Ra Chi Nee Pan Dok and mixed hybrid but need to have RCN as leader like RCN X Petch Na Wang, RCN X Lop Bu Ri (LBR). For this time, I do the handed cross pollination between RCN and Thai Socotranum: Golden Crown (GC) by using RCN as pollen. As we knew, GC is the best Thai Socotranum hybrid with nice root base and paralleled branch form.

Here below are the Arabicum-Bonsai processes:
1. Seed sowing focused on hybrid usuage2. How to create root around bottom caudex3. How to organize the root with bonsai discipline (angle technique)4. How to raise the caudex size as we need5. How to maintain shape or form as Bonsai class
I will talk about these things later. You can share the idea to me via my email.
Thanks a lot and have fun with Arabicum growing.
