Re: Bonsai

I love growing all sorts of plants, but never tried Bonsai. I bet it's interesting. How many trees do you have?

I keep thinking about starting some Topiary, but haven't got round to it yet.

Love to see some pictures when you are able to, Jaded.

I believe it's a Chinese Elm, in a moss ball.
I bought it for Marge's birthday in September last year.

Re: Bonsai

Hi Jaded I like Bonsai and once tried with an oak seedling I found in the garden but didn't get far before it died .

I have a Liquidambar styraciflua that I planted in the lawn about 15 years ago not realising they grow to 12 meters
Every year I prune it right back and keep the hight to about 7 feet and the leaves and branches have got progressively smaller although it is not in a container. It is a sort of mini tree thought not really a Bonsai
