My Bonsai's

This page shows my bonsai collection. I will upload new photos throughout their lives to show the growth. Of course with bonsai trees, it takes years and years for them to look more tree-like, and grow thicker with age. All of my plants were bought as baby trees about 5-8" high, and the stumps were still green, so they all have a long way to go.

Some might argue that bonsai is not an art form, but I disagree, which is why I have them on this art website. It is a true art form to understand and accomplish successfully growing a tiny tree, keeping it alive, and shaping it to an attractiveness to look like a real tree, just in miniature size. And it is a LOT of work!

Below is a chart of the tree types I currently have. I listed the common name, along with the botanical name.
