8 yr Boxwood with roots over rock
6 yr old nerifolia
26yr old nerifolia
Purchased two weeks ago from Samurai Gardens and Ocala Bonsai Studio.
Indoor setup
I'm making sure the soil is moist and not too wet. The boxwood is showing growth while the nerifolia has lost may be one leaf. plants look healthy, but they've only been in my office for about 2 weeks. I understand bonsai trees need sunlight and 99% of the time should be outdoors. I'm hoping my setup would provide sufficient light, humidify, and the care for these two species. I'm planning for the potential requirement for the plants to be outside and if i have to, i will bring them home and keep them out during the summer months. Personally, I was hoping this set up would work and i'm here to ask for feedback on what else i can do to keep the trees in my office. Like i said, they look good, but two weeks is no enough to determine if it is working.
thoughts?

Indoor setup
- warm air humidifier next to bonsais
- Large window facing SW with temperature reaching in the 80s
- Room air temp 70-90F
- 6 lights setup on timer for 14hrs some lights close to plants
- organic fertilizer added on 4/28 (half the amount recommended)
- Humidity meters, but i check soil. I also have a water bottle sprayer to make sure the moss does not dry up.
