    bonsai isnt a species of tree, you can have any species of tree you want, bonsai is the art of keeping the tree small.

    wtf. get out of my recommended, i have never watched bonsai tree videos

  6. kungtompa Says:

    there are no specific bonsai seeds, there are only tree seeds. the bonsai trees stay small because they are taken care of and pruned.

    I planted some bonsai seeds that i got around my bday in Nov. 08. Three sprouted in like Feb and are now about 3 inches tall. They better be bonsai seeds because the kit i bought cost $10!

    i remember where i got my first bonsai it was just siting there in a dark corner and it looked like hell so i bought it and fixed it up right now it got a lil too much sun and the leaves fell off but i can already see new leaves :)

  10. StringsCrusader Says:

    No.. obviously they shoot within weeks, but those “seedlings” he showed were past the initial sprouting phase. They just take longer. Much longer. Bonsai isn’t something you can accomplish within one season, and even if you can, your Bonsai won’t be very attractive. It won’t have any of the characteristic age marks and weathering that make Bonsai’s attractive.

  14. Pyromaceno1 Says:

    Hes chatting rubbish. My seed started shooting at 6weeks, It all about varieties.
    Not years just to shoot!

  16. sang4roid Says:

    seriously.

  17. 1cross3nails4gvn Says:

    actually no need to worry these seeds that hes using are most likely very slow growing I can ASSURE YOU in nine years a seedling will look 15 TIMES BIGGER THAN THAT and much fatter.

  18. AfterWorldRCEVids Says:

    OK so i want to start bonsai and i bought a kit(miniature indoor bonsai Canadian sugar maple tree from the master herbalist) and i was just wondering if that was a good choice.

    “dreams=shattered” LOL lol rofl

    if you are in more arid region, Legumes (like acacia, palo-verde and Deasert fern) are beautiful trees and grow VERY quckly, most are ready to style within 2-3 years.

  21. akinderreality Says:

    I don’t know, I have real reservations about people collecting trees from the wild

  22. Prahduhgee Says:

    hmm I planned to grow my Japanese Red Maple from seed and I knew it would take patience,but now I’m getting a little discouraged…but I’ve got a feeling that when Momiji(my tree’s name even though she[the seed] has yet to arrive)is about 10 that it will have been worth it :)

  23. contents7 Says:

    you can find very nice naturally stunted specimens in the wild. It just takes a little luck and some knowledge to find them. I think it’s much more rewarding to find your trees than to by them from a nursery.

    I am growing bonsais from a couple of ginkgo tree seeds. When they were about 8 months old, I trimmed the roots a bit and repotted them in bonsai pots. THey are both growing on a south-facing window sill with the window open anywhere from 2 inches to a couple of feet. THey are absolutely beautiful and NOT getting any taller. What do I do next? Can’t find ANY information on the care of ginkgos. . .
