Very nice...that's just about vague enough.
You know ,I'm beginning to think we need some social group like the ASPCA only for bonsai. I love the fact that places like Walmart and Home Depot sell them, but they should take care of them. I mean for real, some of these bonsai come from the equilivent of a "puppy farm". They plant, they cut, package, ship then sell and all VERY quickly. I find myself making pity purchases more than anything. I feel sorry for a tree and bring it home to save it rather than let them kill it.
