About Bonsai Pilot
What is Bonsai Pilot?
Bonsai Pilot is a mobile web application designed to help bonsai enthusiasts track and manage their bonsai trees. It provides an organised space to record care history, plan pruning sessions, monitor fertilization schedules, and keep track of repotting cycles, all in one place, accessible from any device.
Whether you have a single tree or a growing collection, Bonsai Pilot helps you stay on top of each tree's individual needs without relying on memory or scattered notes.
Purpose
Caring for bonsai is a practice that requires patience, consistency, and an understanding of each species' seasonal rhythms. Bonsai Pilot aims to simplify this by:
- Providing timely care reminders tailored to each tree's species and history
- Offering seasonal guidance based on pruning, fertilization, and transplant windows
- Keeping organised records of care events so you always know what was done and when
- Helping you spot patterns in your trees' health and adjust care accordingly
The goal is to support your practice (not replace it) by reducing the mental overhead of managing multiple trees across changing seasons.
Independent Project
Bonsai Pilot is an independent project built by bonsai enthusiasts for bonsai enthusiasts. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any bonsai organisation, club, or commercial nursery.
All species data, care intervals, seasonal windows, and care guides included in the app are based on widely available horticultural knowledge and are intended as general guidance. They may not apply exactly to your tree or location. Always observe the actual condition of your tree before acting on any recommendation: your tree is the best indicator of what it needs.
