I've got a barely used die grinder with terrier bit, two burs (one unopened) and four basic burs. Asking $250 CDN ($200 USD) plus shipping.

unsure why this crab's leaves are turning brown. It did fine last year in the nursery container. I transplanted it this year, around mid May. it hasn't grown much since and the leaves have begun turning brown and drying up. Is this a sign of root rot? I'm unfamiliar with crab. any thoughts?

I saw a Dwarf japanese white pine at my local nursery and I'm curious to know if you guys think DJWP are any good for bonsai. I've read that dwarf varieties in general are bad for bonsai. wasn't cheap either, $149 for a plant 18" high.

Curious to know how many people consider the bonsai process as a means to a final design that is then maintained from then on, or if people regularly restyle and rethink their trees. I ask because a lot of what I've been reading online and in books seems to lean towards designing a tree...

I picked up some 1/4"x1/4" metal screening and two pine panks for some quick sifting frames. One screen gets the 1/4"x1/4"mesh, the other screen gets two layers of mesh, offset, so the final size is 1/8"x1/8". I wove an "x" through the two screens to keep them pressed together. Not...

I found this for $10 with only a price tag, so im not sure what variety it is, but I think a semi cascade is in there somewhere, maybe 15 years from now. I'm going to be putting together my first bonsai mix this weekend. I've got some crushed lava, mini pine nuggets, some pine mulch and...

Alrighty. I stopped by a nursery and found a nice little juniper (not sure which kind) on sale for $10. I could see a semi cascade style already so I snatched it up. I have no place to plant it in the ground this season, so I'd like to keep it in a pot. The question is, what should I do...

I plan on throwing my own pots on the wheel, looking for some suggestions and/or things to look out for. I'm using a cone 6 clay, is that appropriate for winter climates? secondly, I was thinking about the technique one might use to make an oval pot on the wheel and the only thing I can...

I bought a crab and I'm thinking about trunk chopping. I've trunk chopped my maple and Scheff with success, but I'm not sure what to expect with the crab. how soon should I see buds? Should I water heavily and keep in shade after the chop? thanks for your help

Dwarf Schefflera 10 years of training on this one. It's been left to grow wild for the past 2 seasons. This weekend I pruned the top and changed out the soil. A few more years in the growing pot and it might make it to the bonsai pot to begin ramification. I got my first bonsai tools from...

Hello All, I found this Amur maple growing in a field behind my parents house. I was given permission to collect it and kept it in a 5 gal. pot for the first 3 seasons. At some point I planted it in the garden where it stayed for the last 8 years. I trunk chopped it twice and the rest of...
