Newly obsessed with bonsai. I just purchased a large number of trees (mostly juniper) from a local nursery that has gone out of business. I would love to let some of them develop while I practice on others and have seen many forum post responses to plant trees in the ground. I’ve read through some very interesting articles on planting on tile or boards but I am wondering if y’all might have some advice on other simple methods.
I live in 5a. I have a lot of space to plant in rich topsoil, I also have a section of gravel (former driveway with very compact gravel) that I would like to someday turn into a sort of juniper bonsai and succulents garden. Willing to put some money into buying additional gravel/soil amendments to improve the planting. Looking for advice/inspiration.
FYI cannot wait to attend my first workshop in a couple weeks!
