Hi I have just bought my very first bonsai.I am told it is an Ash Bonsai
tree.
Can you let me know the most important points to keep the thing alive....

Pete.

Hi Pete,

West Australian Bonsai Society
http://members.iinet.net.au/~jold/bo...ety/index.html

List of bonsai clubs in Australia (not exhaustive, there are others!)
http://www.bonsaisite.org/clubs/index_html?sort=state

Bonsai in Asia site (run by the WA club president - Hi John!)
http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Palace/7574/

All of these sites have excellent Australian centric information, as well as
lots of useful links.

Very general advice -
1. Join/Visit your local bonsai club, take your tree. Or visit your nearest
bonsai nursery (see Yellow Pages), buy some wire/fertiliser, take your tree
and ask for advice.
2. Keep the tree outside.
3. Keep the soil just damp, not wet and not dried out.

And enjoy, it is a great hobby. :+)

Cheers,
Heidi Aussie
