BONSAI ON A BUDGET

When first learning the basics of bonsai a lot of people aren’t prepared to spend too much money in case they are unable to keep their new purchase alive.
One way of increasing the number of bonsai in your collection without the upfront cost is to create trees of your own from cheaper bonsai starters, cuttings or even something you already have growing around the house.

Make Bonsai Trees of your own
Buying a ready made bonsai from a nursery or at a local market can be not only more expensive than it needs to be, but also not as rewarding as learning to make bonsai trees for yourself.

Bonsai is a Japanese word made up of 2 separate words, “bon” meaning tray or dish, and “sai” meaning tree or plant. It is the combination of these 2 elements that make up a true bonsai.

Putting any old tree into any old pot will usually not create the desired effect of bonsai, so choosing these 2 elements carefully will help create a better looking tree sooner.
