名媛直播

Hi, please can someone help me.
I have grown my bonsai from seed and this is only a year old and has gone from being a healthy green to brown from over the winter period.
Is this normal or is there something I’m doing wrong?
I have recently since this brown been putting outside in the sunshine otherwise it’s been kept in the house on a sunny windowsill.

Please see the attached picture.

Hello and welcome
Well, that is a dead seedling so, yes you did something wrong:
- first you havent grown a bonsai, but a normal tree, which could have become a bonsai in 15-20 years.That of course didnt kill it.
- what did kill it is placing it inside: there is no such thing as an indoor tree, and certainly coniferous species really cant stand being inside.

Oh man!! Obviously I’m a complete novice and this was a kit that I bought and followed instructions and everything. Shame but nice to know I can stop wasting time trying to get it green again haha thanks for your help

Don't feel bad, you are not the first,nor will you be the last.
These kits are scams really: they are normal tree seeds ( there is no such thing as bonsai seed), mostly of unknown origin, species or age.

I assume if I’m to have a bonsai I’m to just buy one. Already grown. Or would you recommend something else?

名媛直播 is about development. You can buy bonsai, but it is expensive and dont give you the Joy of creating. Just buy a garden center tree that have potential and start the journey.

Thanks for the info shall certainly do that and have a look around. Is there anything specific that works for beginners or just any tree will work?

And , without a good horticultural knowledge your bought bonsai or garden center tree will die quickly, so start with studying some horticulture first

I tried to get my thoughts on paper a while ago. Maybe it helps?

For the last many years I have gotten tree after tree out of the ground around my house. We were re-landscaping, now I have 6 or 8 azaleas, most 16 years old, one at least 45. One winged elm, and two more I am planning on, and lots more. If I thought pine was anything more than a weed, I could have dozens.

One big advantage is that everything is adjusted to the local climate.
