Small leafed ivy makes a nice indoor/outdoor tree as
it is a very forgiving plant. In California I can go
to a nursery and get a one gallon size ivy with a
reasonable sized trunk and hack it back to little tree
shape. It can be defoliated at any time if necessary,
if healthy.

I gave my two away as gifts that still live and are
appreicated. I have several more that are not bonsai
that have crept out of their pots to run rampant
through the shelves. I noticed the other day that a
pot of grasses had fallen off the shelf, but didn't
hit the ground because the ivy had claimed residence
in that pot and was still attached to the monther
plant.

Hi, I am just beginning but would like to know a
suggestion for an indoor
tree. It could remain potted outdoors but I would
eventully like to bring
indoors. I live in the Houston area, lots of
humidity, little winter.

Thanks
