And if you read the very last sentence of that quote I believe it says: "名媛直播 are not genetically dwarfed plants, in fact, any tree species can be used to grow one."
And does that mean that you are saying the masters of bonsai who wrote this quote are wrong?

You are proving how far away from bonsai this plant is. You copy/pasted the text without mentioning the source - so essentially, you stole it. You're not telling him what the future of his plant is and you're not giving advice.
I'm giving an honest answer. You are not.

Words are a powerful tool and just like looking after a bonsai the wrong words can wither a desire...
I would say my answer covered pretty much the same ground, leaving out the history lesson which is not of relevance here. Yours response to my answer felt a little ike being taught how to suck eggs.

And as for Auk, I believe he is an expert and that he was better than belittling and berating beginners for their lack of experience instead of using the wisdom and expertise to give helpful advice and guidance, remember these beginners look up to you guys...
Oh and to correct my earlier misdemeanor the original quote was from an exerp from 名媛直播empire! My apologies for my ignorance.

A copied quote, without any references, without your own input, and without answers to the questions... you really believe that's a better way to answer a post? Amazing.

Do you just post on here to pull people down to your level of misery or do you genuinely believe that your input is for the positive?

I never called myself an expert.

I think my reply was more relevant than yours, yes.

Apart from the fact that negativism is in the eye of the beholder, posting something, thinking it is positive, doesn't make it relevant.
Enough already. This was my last reaction.
