Bonsai Trees

I've recently become obsessed with bonsais. I'm planning on growing some from seed when I move back home in the fall.

Does anyone else have any? Or likes them?

The one I have now is an Umbrella Tree.

I think they're awesome, but I wouldn't have the patience to grow such a delicate thing... I mean, seriously. Look at the conditions my chinchillas live in.

Not all of them are delicate. The one I have is great for beginners! 😃
I'm going to try growing dogwoods and lemon trees once I have the room.

Chinchillas! Those things are so cool!

@Solaris
I mean I just wouldn't have the patience to trim the tree all the time, or any of that stuff. I just looked it up a few hours ago, and I don't think I would do very well with one.

Chinchillas are also naughty and evil.

Yes! They are really cool. Do you like the Dragon blood tree? You should look it up! 😃
