On the right is a real tree purchased already shaped and bonsai-d.

On the left is my quicky version of a tree, lol...It is a mexican heather plant that I got in a 4" pot, and then trimmed to make it look like a tree. I think it turned out neat, and was a fraction of the price of the "real" tree. Plus there were three rooted pieces in the pot, so now have two other mex. Heather trees as spares. :0)

You may not see it well in the pictures, but there are lots of tiny purple blooms on it, and the foilage is nice and tiny. You have to get creative, when you can't spend a fortune. :0)
