Bonsai trees are special miniture trees that grow indoors (usually) in pots.
Bonsai is japanese for 'potted plant' and originated in China. they are absolutely gorgeous, the idea of having an entire tree on your windowsil amazes me till today, they grow like trees for years and years,
there are several styles and types of bonsai:
The formal upright style, or Chokkan, is just as the name suggests, and is characterized by a straight, upright, tapering trunk. The trunk and branches of the informal upright, or Moyogi, may incorporate pronounced bends and curves, but the apex of the informal upright is always located directly over the roots.
Mr Myagi from the movie Karate Kid was the first person to get me interested in Bonsai trees. In the movie he talks about how precious they are and how they needed to be treated carefully, and can ...

Advantages: Clean and reliable Disadvantages: Some cabins are getting "tired"

I did speak to someone else on a campsite a couple ...
You probably think I'm weird....but wait!!
So, Bonsai trees, I love em. Well actually I've only got one, so I'm no kind of expert on the matter but it does make a good houseplant. I've had it for a while now and haven't managed to kill it (so they must be robust) and it adds a bit (ok, the only bit) of colour to my room.
Bonsai trees are like no other plant in your house, and its not just the fact that they are trees that makes them different. I don't know what it is about them that I like, but ever since I saw the Karate Kid movie as a kid I wanted one.

you can buy, and they ...
