Mine was pretty easy to care for during the winter months as British weather = A LOT of cloud, so it was fine on the windowsill with watering every second day. I think the problems I am having with mine are related to the repotting I done to it and the dramatic weather we're having here at the moment, we are going from Snow one week to brilliant sun the next with hail in between.

I do have an Acer Palmatum "bloodgood" which I bought a couple of days ago for £30. But its a full sized one not bonsai. Going to try either collecting and planting it's seeds or airlayering one if its branches to start a Bonsai from it.
