Bonsai Care: Tree Pruning Log

Bonsai Care is a plant tracker built for the slow timescale of bonsai. Keep a watering and pruning log for every tree, get a reminder when the next task is due, and build a growth photo timeline that shows years of shaping instead of leaving it to memory.

Weeks pass between waterings, months between prunings, and years between real changes in shape. Without a record it is hard to remember what you did to which pot and when. This app keeps that history in one place, one bonsai at a time.

YOUR COLLECTION
• Add each bonsai with a name, species, style (formal upright, cascade, literati, windswept, forest group and more), acquired date, notes and a photo
• A status on every card: overdue, due today, or the next task in N days
• Open a profile in the guide and add that species straight to your collection

CARE LOG
• Log watering, fertilizing, pruning, wiring, repotting and growth photos as you do them, with date and notes
• Scroll back through the complete history of a single tree
• Attach a picture to any entry, so the record shows how the tree looked that day
• Delete an entry you logged by mistake

WATERING REMINDERS AND CALENDAR
• Local notifications when something is due for water, feeding, a prune, wiring, repotting or a new growth photo
• The Calendar tab lists every task across your collection as overdue, due today or upcoming
• Overdue work stays visible in the app instead of arriving as a stale notification
• Season-aware tips, with a Northern or Southern Hemisphere setting so spring really means spring where you live

BONSAI SPECIES GUIDE
• 40 curated profiles: pines, junipers, spruce, yew, Japanese maple, trident maple, Chinese elm, zelkova, hornbeam, ginkgo, ficus, jade, Fukien tea, bougainvillea, azalea, camellia, olive, pomegranate and more
• For each one: light, how often to water, soil, fertilizer cycle, pruning by season, when to wire, how often to repot, common problems with cause and fix, and a hobbyist tip
• Filter by family (conifer, deciduous, tropical, flowering, fruiting) and see difficulty and indoor or outdoor at a glance

GROWTH PHOTO TIMELINE

• Put two photos side by side in a before and after view (Pro)
