Hello Pat!
I am just the kind of Bonsai enthusiast that you are referring to. An ignorant beginner, an admirer of the Art of bonsai, searching for information on the Internet... and among the fresh recruits of BonsaiTalk.
I do have lots of questions to ask but for the moment I wonder, have I been too daring to have uprooted a small populus alba-silver poplar (4-5 years old I presume) growing from seed in my farmyard and put it in a training pot as my first attempt to make "something like a bonsai tree"?
Anyway, I believe that I have replied to you in order to make my first contact with members rather than looking for advice (I will surely do this later on). So, wish me good luck with bonsai art, Pat... And you know, thank God a plus for me is that I'm gifted with some, just a little bit of patience...
I want to thank you all for your hearty and valuable tips (essay I would rather name it)!
Greeting to everyone!
