Hello Shelly, thanks for seeds, I am looking forward to a gorgeous flower show. Granville, I started some bonsai a few years ago because I like them but they are so expensive to buy. I started with an ash as I had millions of self seeded ones everywhere. It is over 6 yrs old now and doing really well. You don't have to do much to an ash as they do have a lovely shape. My next one was a Lillypilly which is now nearly 5. I did use a bit of wire on this one to get a lower form on some branches. I have a tortured willow and a nectarine ready to go into their bonsai pots this year. The pic here is the Lillypilly, but he looks a bit sad today because of the really hot weather we have had for the last 3 days.
It's great fun to try something different isn't it ?
