2 week old Flame tree - possible drooping? Care advice?

[ziana]

Hi, this is my first bonsai tree. Trying to do as much research as possible to keep my tree going for many years. I noticed the two main leaves on the stem starting to droop, is that normal or should I be concerned? I used a mixture of succulent soil and regular garden soil for drainage, what would be the best soil mixture?
I live in Canada so the best place I can keep it is a window until August-September when the temperature starts to get colder then I will get a lamp and keep in a warmer place. Also I’ve seen mixed reviews on bonsai with flame trees, so when is a good time to start adding wire to it?

Please add location to profile. Make sure soil is not too wet but just damp normally.

There are great species fact sheets here:

I'm guessing, but I think you've got a seedling, and won't need to wire it for some time. I have another compound-leafed species, also young, and for now it's just fun to see them happy -- really neat to see when they unfurl new "branches"!
