I just got some of this! When you say hardy, do you mean it can stand missouri winter? Or just that anybody can grow it? Thanks! :)

No they cannot take cold below 50 degrees. Yes, very easy to grow inside. Thank you!

Thank you so much, I'll sure do that! I bought a bonsai from Wally world and it died straight away. I couldn't figure out what did. When I took it out of the pot, they had cut off the tap root and there was 1 stringy little root. No wonder it didn't live!

There is a nice seller here on Listia that sells bonsai. His name is Kevin and I think he is in West Virginia. His starting prices are rather high though. You can check him out by just searching the term "bonsai". His supply comes from Amazon. There are 2 types he has. A juniper bonsai and a Dessert Rose bonsai. Good luck my new friend!

smorris, do you have any tips on how to turn this in to a bonsai? I love bonsai but have had terrible time trying to keep them alive! :)

For successful bonsai you must plant in a shallow planter. The roots need to be constricted so to "stunt" the growth. The trunk should develop naturally into a thick and vein-like base.
Most local libraries now have the option to read books on-line. My most helpful suggestion would be to look at information for the bonsai beginner (like me!).
Good luck. I know you will do grand!

I really love his plants but it is hard for me to let go of that many credits at one time! lol I have a goal to get my Christmas shopping done for "free" here on Listia so I must be frugal with my credits haha!
