[bhunsai]

New Seedling here, would love help to identify these two i have here. named "Garuda" (the tall one, eagle) and "Kurma" (the small one, turtle) I bought these guys after a fair bit of thought went into purchasing a bonsai for my birthday, buuuut the owner had a tonne of them (100-150) and didn't speak English at all. So I couldn't get them named, therefore I am unsure of researching pruning, growing, potting and just general care. The goods, the bads

Would love some help...pleeeeeeeease!

Thank you so much!! Really appreciate it, now I can research looking after these babies

Looks like Kurma has a little sprig of Artillery Plant (pilea microphylla) hanging out as well.

Oooo exciting. Any recommendations for that? Is it just a floor covering?

People use it in mini landscapes to nice effect, but I've read that it's a fairly hated weed in some parts of the U.S.

Hmmm alrighty, maybe would it be best to put it in its own container?

Likely best to get rid of.

It looks like it takes 5 posts to germinate from seed to seedling.
