Pink bonsai can be maintained indoors. Just maintain it in a well-lit area. When the outdoor light and humidity are good, you can move it outdoors for maintenance for a period of time. 1. Watering: Pewter bonsai cannot tolerate standing water, so watering should be reduced. Usually, it is only necessary to maintain some moisture in the potting soil. If the temperature is slightly higher in summer, it is best to water in the early morning or early morning. Generally, the principle is "water it thoroughly if you don't do it". 2. Light: Ash bonsai is a light-loving plant and needs to be provided with sufficient light during the growth period. In addition to shading in summer, it can be placed in the sun in other seasons. Shading measures should be taken in summer to provide adequate astigmatism maintenance. 3. Environmental temperature: Manchurian ash bonsai is highly adaptable to the environment and can tolerate low temperatures of minus 20 degrees and high temperatures of 40 degrees. However, the temperature in the north is low, so it is best to move indoors for maintenance in winter. In places with heating, pay attention to hydration. 4. Fertilization: During the growth period of Manchurian ash bonsai, thin fertilizer should be applied frequently, usually in the sunny afternoon when the pot soil is dry. Apply decomposed organic fertilizer in spring and thin fertilizer during the growth period, preferably once every 5-7 days. In late autumn, some thin fertilizer should be applied in front of the gray leaves to improve the plant's cold resistance. 5. Pruning style: Ash bonsai will sprout more new shoots in spring. At this time, excess new shoots should be wiped off in time. During the growing season, overlapping branches, crossing branches, pests and diseases can be pruned, and twigs can be shortened. Branches that are too long can be shortened to reduce the loss of nutrients.

A common disease is yellowing, so ferrous sulfate can be used once a week. It can be cured after 3-5 times in a row. Common pests are flower thrips, which can be killed by enemies.
