I live in Los Angeles. My dad grew bonsai for years and always told me to stay away from maples as they burn here. I of course ignored that last season and bought seven maple seedlings and tossed them in an old beater pot just to see for myself. Kept them shaded under a palm on the east side of my yard. Dappled sunlight. Light bio gold feedings and cut off all the wild foliage at the end of fall. Here I am now and am super surprised they all survived. Am considering planting them in a large training box or maybe the ground or heck maybe just leave em alone another year.
Any advice much appreciated. 12” oval pot for reference on size. Not too concerned either way it’s just an experiment my heart lay with the conifers in my meager collection.
