Hi Davis, I would suggest a Juniper or Firethorn. Shaun Cape Town South Africa I certainly agree with the juniper suggestion, but in many parts of the world, Firethorn (Pyracantha) are too disease-prone for a beginner. Chinese elm (outdoors and -- with care -- indoors), Ficus (indoors), privet (outdoors and with a bit more care, indoors), boxwood (outdoors), juniper (outdoors), bougainvillea (outdoors whenever possible, indoors in winter), are all likely candidates for a beginning bonsaiest.
