This article is simply an introduction to anyone thinking of growing bonsai trees. It is important that you read up as much as possible on each variety to make sure you are buying the bonsai that is right for you. Just because they are the easiest of bonsai to care for does not mean you should neglect them. They will still need watering, feeding, pruning and re-potting, however this should be easy enough for any beginner bonsai grower

If you are a nature lover and admirer, and if you love trees, Bonsai trees are definately made for you. Bonsai are like a tiny version of big trees, bougainvillea bonsai being the most famous. Differently styled and shaped bonsai trees make its surroundings graceful and full of nature. The size and style of the bonsai must be kept in mind while choosing a container for it.

When going out to buy a bonsai, three aspects must be kept in mind i.e. the type of container, position of the plant, choice of the plant type variety.

The bonsai is available in different styles. Some of them are slant, cascade, semi-cascade, windswept, formal upright and informal upright. The slant style is the most easy and common of all. In this, the trunk extends in one direction and the lowest branch to the other. Slant style can be done on almost any bonsai tree.The cascade types have a sloping effect in which the trunk is vertical and turned to one direction. The branches are cascaded lower than the surface of the container. The semi cascade is a bit similar to the cascade. The only difference in the two is that the trunk gradually slopes rather than turning to one direction. The windswept style looks as if the tree has been beset by strong wind blows. It looks beautifully unkempt. The formal upright style is the one in which trunk is straight upwards and the lower branches are wider than the rest. The next branches are slightly narrower than its preceding braches so that a triangular appearance of the tree is achieved. Pine, Larch, Juniper and Spruce are the trees that have this kind of arrangement. The informal upright style gives the tree, an appearance of motion where the top branch is extended forward instead of upwards. Beech, Japanese Maple and Trident Maple trees have informal upright style. These styles have been practiced over the ages and grace any place with their unique appearance.

There are basically four sizes of flowering bonsai. These sizes are miniature, small, medium and average. Miniature bonsai is about two inches tall. It usually achieves this within two to three three years. Small bonsai can grow to three to six inches in height and take around five to nine years to grow. Medium bonsai grow to six to twelve inches tall. They grow quickly and mature in around three years. Average sized bonsai may grow to even two feet, attaining maturity in three years. It is easy to find various types of bonsai trees available in these styles for shaping and training.

Proper care: this plant is tough, but it grows best in temperatures between 60 and 85 degrees. Let the soil dry completely between waterings, but take care not to dehydrate as this will stress the plant. For maintenance, spray mist everyday from spring to fall and at least twice daily during the winter months. Fertilize during early spring or mid fall twice a month.

One of the best features of this plant is that it produces fragrant green and yellow fruits.

Proper care: it may be tough, but if you want the best care, give the flowering quince a lot of sunlight and soil that is well-drained between waterings. Don’t place this plant in a humid environment and use rich, healthy soil. Don’t overwater and cut a few of the older branches yearly to promote bushy growth.

Lavender Star Flower This is an evergreen tree that grows native to Africa and Australia. There are about 400 species of this tree all over the world. The Lavender Star Flower is taller than most flowering bonsai and can reach 10 inches in maturity. Its flower is its best feature, since the color is a beautiful lavender.

Proper care: this tree needs lots of direct sunlight, so try to expose it during the early mornings and keep it near the window where it can soak up more light. Keep the soil moist but not wet. For optimum health, mix one part sand and two parts peat moss. Use slightly acidic fertilizer about thrice a year and sprinkle with iron supplement yearly.
