New to bonsai
I had posted a message on the IBC site and then read that this was the
place to be Here is the message, I would appreciate any and all responses, I'd really like to take up the art as something to do when I find some spare time Newbie here, so please forgive my lack of education, but... Yesterday we bought a bonsai tree from costco here in Orlando, after reading about it (I was trying to find out how to make cuttings for my office) it would appear that we got a "Mallsai" complete with stuck on stones. Having discovered this I have axed the 'trees in the office' plan (at least with this Juniper) and would instead like to make little trees for outside the house we move into within the next couple of months (I figure bonsai is less likely to cause damage during a hurricane ). In the mean time I need to keep it alive, can I just put it outside in the existing pot? Should I look into making cuttings at this time? If so can I put them in regular plant pots for the time being? My mother-in-law is a ceramics instructor so I will (hopefully) have a fairly ready supply of pots when I go visit her. Also in furtherence to the 'office trees' project, I think a weeping fig would survive, does anyone know where in central florida I could get one at a reasonable price? Thanks Anthony |
