Hi all.
I'm new to this amazing world of 名媛直播 and have recently found lots of stunted growth holly trees in our school garden.
My profile pic is of one I collected last week.
Now, can anyone advise a newbie on how to care, shape a ND train said species?
Many thanks.

Hi Ginger.
I am not one to give expert advices but would suggest few things here. First, make this tree healthy, its not looking ok to me right now. Transferring it in small bonsai pot is may be not the best for beginning. Use normal pot with good drainage where it can get good growth. Few years later you can repot in bonsai pot and further develop. Put tree outside and not grow it inside. Too obvious its outdoor plant. Last thing, you have to carefully pickup your future bonsai material. Trees that are just not right for that will never turn into something, whatever you do.

Just like not every plant in a pot can be called a bonsai, not every plant found in the wild can be called a Yamadori.
However... you started the right way: you got an outdoor plant, that grows in your local climate and that has some potential.
It's not great material though and it's going to need work, as Spacewood wrote. Would be nice if you can find more / better material to work with!
