i got this potted dwarf alberta spruce tree as a mini christmas tree in december to decorate, with the intention of training it into a bonsai tree when christmas past. ever since then it has been sitting in my window, indoors (i would say very low light, in darkness for all but about 8 hours of the day, and the light that it does get is generally blocked by clouds and trees and stuff; it’s winter in lower british columbia, the first photo in the bunch is where i have it homed 100% of the time, next to my elderberry and spider plant.) my point is i’m surprised and excited that it is doing so well and continuing to grow after a harsh pruning! even though the roots term really bound, the tree is draining very well, absorbing water nicely and draining out fairly quickly, i haven’t had to worry at all about soggy roots. i don’t have any photos of the original tree but as you can imagine it was about a foot tall and cone shaped like a christmas tree. I really had an obsession with windswept bonsai at the time i styled it, and i couldn’t find anyone really making windswept spruce or cedar or things of that nature, so i really wanted to give it a go, and i’m so happy with how it is turning out!! if you would like to drop your opinion, suggestions, care recommendations, future styling ideas and recommendations, ideas as to when i should bring it back outside, please let me know!!! thank you for having a look at my Dwarf Alberta Spruce < 3
