Bonsai trees!

[Repetitive Monkey]

Anybody interested in Bonsai trees?

I am thinking about getting one or more and put in my terrarium for effect.









Does anyone know of an online place that has a decent selection of developed Bonsai trees and that ships to Europe?

Yeah, Bonsais are cool, but do you know how to take care of them?

Moderate to little water every once in a while? And some pruning? It can't be that hard.

Bonsai trees are pimp , they would look good in a woodland garden

I have 11 of them, just starting to bud again now the weather is getting better.

What did you pay for them, or did you cultivate them yourself?

[mattyboy]

From around £10 - £150 each.
See my thread here http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...hreadid=262764 and you'll see a few if you look closely. (check out the cascading tree in the tall pot)

They are pretty cool things to own, but better to grow!

I want one that's not so small and all twisted

But that's the ones that look authentic.

Here's mine. 23 years old but is looking sickly lately. I have to take it in to have it looked at. Hope I didn't kill it.

I don't know if they ship to Europe, but I've ordered others through:

Thanks for the link, unfortunately they do not ship internationally. "<i>We do not ship Internationally (including Canada and Mexico)</i>"

Otherwise I would have bought this one: http://www.bonsaiboy.com/catalog/product32.html

I would not reccomend a conifer if you dont trust the seller... they can be dead up to 6 months before you realize they have died.

The sap will stop flowing but the tree will appear alive.

I have a ferw bonsais and they do neet to be maintined almost daily.

Scandinavia. I haven't seen many Bonsai trees sold in my country, and the few I have seen go for the same price as a decent car. lol

I am soon off to Sweden though, maybe I'll find something there.
