Have you ever thought about growing your own Bonsai tree but changed your mind because you thought it was either too costly, or maybe too difficult? Well that's what I thought anyway. However, when I looked into it I discovered that growing a Bonsai tree is not really different from growing any other tree.

If you like gardening and are on the lookout for a new and fascinating hobby then the art of Bonsai tree growing may just be what you are looking for. However, before you rush down to the local garden centre there a few helpful pointers that you should be aware of before you embark on this exciting hobby.

A Bonsai tree meaning "potted plant" is no different to any other type of tree, that is, it's not some sort of special hybrid that is naturally dwarfed in appearance. Therefore to achieve the Bonsai effect careful pruning of branches and roots will result in a dwarf like miniature tree.

Any tree can therefore become a bonsai tree. However, as you would expect some are better suited than others. When thinking about growing your own Bonsai tree you need to choose one that is generally slow growing and one with small leaves.

A good example would be a Hawthorn tree and would make an ideal choice for anybody wishing to get involved with the art of Bonsai.

So, rather than purchasing an already established Bonsai Tree why not try growing your own? It will certainly be a lot cheaper, and it will give you the opportunity to experiment without costing a cent. All you need to start is a young sapling that you think would make a good Bonsai tree. Remember, a tree with small leaves will generally make a better Bonsai. Try to find a sapling that already has a few shoots and therefore is likely to better accept it's new surroundings.

You now need to replant your sapling into your garden until it's reasonably well established and actively growing. Once you are happy that your sapling has accepted it's new environment it's time to carefully place your Bonsai to be in a Bonsai container or pot where it will spend the rest of it's life.

Your miniature tree will grow better the closer you can replicate it's natural living environment. Therefore it's advisable, initially anyway, to leave your Bonsai tree outside.

A Bonsai tree should never be left to dry out. Likewise it should never be waterlogged either. The ideal situation is too ensure the soil is kept moist. This generally means you need to water your Bonsai tree a little every day...
