Default Bonsai indoor plants

Are they really a lot of hassle to take care of?

They take more attention and knowledge that average plants..... so the
short answer is yes.

Are trees which normally have long taproots suitable for bonsai?

I would assume so if you started when they were young enough, but I've
never bonsai'ed anything for too long. I always loose intrest or life
takes me over and I forget the bonsai for too long. Bonsai is a
commitment. The best plant (imho) to start with to learn bonsai is the
rosemary. It can take a real beaten'...lol

Check out the rec.arts.bonsai group for better info than I can give.
