Hi everyone, I was down to the Bonsai Nursery in Dallas last week and I noticed that they had quite a number of Orange trees for sale. I didn't catch the scientific name.
I did some googling plus searched on this site and it doesn't look like they're widely used. Is there a reason for that? Are there drawbacks that make them unpopular?
Are they hard to work with? Are they leaves hard to reduce? The few pictures that I found looked like the leaves were out of proportion to the size of the branches and trunk.
This would be my first bonsai tree.
The nursery also had a number of maples (the ones I liked were out of my price range), quinces, elms, etc. I'm really interested in the deciduous and fruiting trees. Any advice and recommendations are welcome.
