Bonsai in the U.S. is not exactly underground and unpopular, however I talk to people that don't know what it is or like most they think it's just juniper cuttings in mass produced pots with glued rocks.
Let's say a very famous movie director became fascinated with Bonsai and made a movie about the struggles of an young American who goes to Japan for a formal apprenticeship. The director throws in a good love story, some beautiful bonsai, and an inspirational story line. Over the next five years there is a huge Bonsai Boom in the U.S. Everyone wants to do it. My question is-what do you think about this? How many people getting into bonsai would be a good thing? is there a point when Bonsai get's "too big" here in the US? How would this affect the current and the long term Bonsai scene?
Thanks!
