a bit a bout bonsaion the availability of 'bonsai seeds':the short answer is they are rarely ever marketed as such but on bonsai, some general information: there are many kinds of trees that are bonsai'd. cypress, juniper, spruce, maple, ficus, palm etc. so a seed from one of these species, or from another on the incredibly long list of available species, is a seed to bonsai. bonsais are not dwarfed genetically. they are dwarfed through pruning. pruning of the crown and roots, importantly. my advice: find a list or pictures of the MANY kinds of bonsai trees that exist and appeal. indoor or outdoor living is a good starting point. and then, if it is a plum, for instance. go buy and eat an organic plum. save the seed. search the web for successful germination techniques. give it a go. a half a dozen at a time will increase the likelihood of success. gymnosperm (cone-bearing plants) germination, i believe, is trickier than angiosperm (flowering plants) germination (but it is done!). so maybe - pick up some fallen cones, grab a blow torch, and begin. peace -- namaste your gardener : ) Posted 11/01/2006 link
