Someone interested in growing and raising a bonsai plant should start by reading as much on the topic as possible. There are no doubt books, magazines, and other publications available at the library and franchise home garden, landscape, and hardware stores. For those who are more interested in specific articles, there are wonderful sites on the Internet available for printing and reading.
With a little bit of background information and knowledge about soils, fertilizers, care, feeding, and all the other needs of your potential new bonsai plant, you might first decide to buy one that' s already potted. However, plants in pots that are bought at discount houses are just as they sound discount. If you are serious about this project, you might decide to reward yourself with the purchase of a nice little clay tray or pot that will encourage you to take pride in your bonsai plant. Or you can drop by a nursery or online store and spring for a more expensive, hardier plant that might survive the learning curve! Look for plants with unbroken branches.

Another fun way to learn about this type of gardening is to search for images on the internet. Google has a wonderful selection of roughly 4,000 bonsai plant images. Bonsai is actually a form of fine art that was started with the Chinese and then was adapted and expanded by the Japanese. Some of the original bonsai plans were actually miniature trees natural mutants. The term bonsai in the United States is a bit less restrictive than the art in Japan, because not all plants can equally be used. To be a true bonsai plant, all aspects of the plant should be in proportion to a regular tree.
