Carmona microphylla I like the article

Cultivation Carmona microphylla
The Carmona microphylla has a shrub- like development. These plants have a sapling deportment, with a short stem with a small roundish crown. The Carmona microphylla Is small in size; in winter it assumes a greenwhite colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round.

Light Carmona microphyllaPosizione luminosa
We suggest to leave this plant in a place where it is not directly exposed to solar rays, which might ruin its leaves; in any case it is best to choose a very bright spot. We advise cultivating the the Carmona microphylla in a covered place, in an apartment or green house, as they don't like temperatures below 15°C: during late Spring they can be moved outdoors.Let’s remember that bonsai usually are grown in quite contained containers; this is why we suggest moving the vases in a slightly shaded place during the hottest weeks of the summer.

Water Carmona microphyllaTenere Umido
Let's wet abundantly with about 2-3 glasses of water , acting when the soil is pretty dry; during this period of the year we can water even every 1-2 weeks . Let’s frequently check the soil of our bonsai, to avoid it from remaining dry for long periods of time.

Pests Carmona microphylla
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Mold Carmona microphylla
We recommend a soil which stays wet for long.
