Anyone do bonsai?

[daygrower]

If you have bonsai trees I would love to see pics. I have a ton of pre bonsai and this spring I want to turn them into something. I'm thinking about rock plantings or forests but I need some ideas.
Thanks in advance, Jim

Very cool hobby...I tried once but they're far too delicate for me.

Way cool Jim, I tried bonsai once...I think I lacked the patience at the time. I Have always wanted to get another one...Cant wait to see what you come up with!!!!

If you do larger out side types they are tough as nails.I used to do the indoor ones but they are finicky. I have some large Japanese maples and Japanese black pines some are 3ft. they will be good and rugged.

I can't do the itty bitty trees. I did a larger Japanese Maple once and it turned out good, then the house was sold....

Now I'm getting ready to work on a Japanese Maple sapling in front of the new house. I left it be last year to grow in, since we've been fighting a drought. But in a few weeks I'm going to begin shaping it up!
