  • You mentioned that if you transplant a tree from outside and try to turn it into a bonsai tree, it will die. But what about the other way around? If you take a bonsai tree and transplant it into free soil outside, what will happen? Will it die? Will it grow to normal size? Will it stay small?

  • We call it "bồn tài"

  • the best way of avoiding problems with the bonsai is to find anouther hobby, that you can do in one lifetime

  • @RickReidProductions Hahahaha you the man!

  • @bunn1989 Well you can see these vides but u posted this 2 years ago and i'v only got my bonsai tree today and i wanted to know are you a pro at bonsai trees now??

  • @SelfHandledRogue for real?

  • well my bonsai tree comes from the far off land of....tesco

    :)

  • @bunn1989 Ive just started growing bonsais and found that there is not really much need to read up on them they sell seeds on ebay almost any seeds you would want all you need to do is to plant them in good compost and as soon as they seedlings of a few weeks old replant them into bonsai soil also sold on ebay. Ive had success with a variety of trees so far, such as the african baobab tree, candain redwood canadian maple, hornbeams etc just need to take into consideration the trees requirements.

  • fresh aquarium water works wonders
