@Boehm Collector   The weeping cherry requires about the same amount of work as my other bonsai - watering every three or four days , pruning a few times a year, and wiring.once a year.   They should be fertilized during growing periods - but not much, you don't want it to grow a lot.  The weeping cherry is nice because it's an indoor bonsai, meaning it doesn't need to experience a cold winter like many deciduous trees..I put mine in a shaded spot on the deck in summer; like most plants, it enjoys the humid summer air.
