Where can I find a bonsai? was created by kaite124

Posted 8 years 1 month ago #27676
I decide to buy a new bonsai. The last bonsai I got didn't do so well and I don't know if it's a real bonsai or just a house plant. Anyways I need help on where to get a bonsai with great health and that won't die on me in a month. Also what's the best bonsai for beginners. A bonsai with little care and little work.
Thank you for your help :-)

Hm.. The problem i see with your question.. 名媛直播 are not really low maintenance. I assume you are not relaly looking at bonsai, but would just like to have a plant with a certain style in a pot. Then consider a ficus. If you truly would like to get into bonsai, you will need to realize it is going to require frequent -daily mostly- attention.

"New", is a word, that just, doesn't fit 名媛直播. But if you really want the coolest tree, you'd have to steal it, they're not for sale.

Oh yes, most bonsai, start out as plants, your's can do it too, but you might want to check out a forum, devoted to houseplant ficus that, sort of, just not doing so well. ie if you can bring that around, yes, you have what it takes. If not, get another, and try again. I believe, you have to kill about a thousand trees before you can be a Master.

No, here in the "Fly Over States" we're stuck with," Grow Your Own".[/quote]

Elms, of course, but if your stuck indoors, a ficus would be just fine.[/quote]

You're welcome, not much help am I? Hopefully we didn't scare you away, if you made it this far down the post, my advice would be, ... Just surf around, and learn, start with the link at the top.

Absolute nonsense. Allmost all bonsai are for sale, for the right price AND the right owner. The owners of such trees care highly that they only go to people that know what they are doing. Which is why they are not normally advertised.

But decent quality bonsai can be purchased even online. Be aware that they carry a serious pricetag, as quality bonsai are not easy nor fast to create.

See for examples of good bonsai for sale:

If you're referring to that ficus: I assure you that it's just a house plant.
