How tall can a tree be before it is no longer considered a bonsai?
"Just guessing on "average" anything over 2 1/2 to 3 feet tall should be considered Niwaki"
Funny, I'd consider 2 1/2 to 3 to be just on the tall side of average. Many of mine average three feet tall...The majority of Japanese, Chinese and American bonsai in the National Arboretum collection are all well over two feet tall. The Japanese collection there, I'd say averages three feet plus. The American collection has trees that are over five feet tall.
How do you qualify as old when you have a child in first grade??(I am old but one of the youngest).
It doesn't matter...can't a guy father a child at 50, 60, or older?How do you qualify as old when you have a child in first grade??
Sorry, but didnt see those posts. I dont search out all your posts as I have plenty of other things to do, just recall reading the one about the first grader, and it didnt add up.It doesn't matter...can't a guy father a child at 50, 60, or older?
I did mention earlier (couple of times) that I also have 21 and 25 year old children.
I understand that Public Displays almost always have larger trees but I do not recall seeing anything large in shows.
