    I geeked out on plants today and am excited to have gotten 3 pre-bonsai plants and tools at Artisan Bonsai Nursery

    Ulmus Parvifolia is better grown as a 'Cool House' Bonsai not a 'Warm House' Bonsai In more cold climates indoors in a 3 season room or sun room where the temps can be kept around 40F, a Lacebark can get enough of a dormancy to survive

    Dwarf Barbados Cherry

    Love this plant. I let it cascade. roots so easily in summer. But it is prone to root-rot. if the roots start to rot, cut them all off above the soil and set it on new soil to save the tree. I also grow the standard for the fruit
