That IS natural. In nature, seeds can land on a rock, in a crevice, in a confined space, on the top of a mountain, exposed to wind and cold, they can be eaten by animals and recover, get hit by falling rocks, etcetera. The most sought after bonsai are Yamadori, trees that have endured hard times but have survived, and stayed small. I've posted an example of such a tree in this topic. All we do is mimic that process.
