Re: Newbie with questions.

Hi, there are allot of online shows that have tons of pictures you could look through to try to figure out what you have, try: http://www.bonsaiweb.com/show/ How much you need to water really varies on your tree, for instance if you have a bald cypress, that will need more water then if you had a black pine that likes to dry a little before you water again.

The thing with the glued down rocks is: the glue is usually made of 50 percent elmers & 50 percent water when mixed, and when you water it the glue is released and gets in your soil and goes to your roots and promote root rot and cause real damage.

this article might help answer some of your questions http://www.bonsaiweb.com/forum/articles/begin/

and after you figure out what you have, it will probably be in here telling you specifics on how to take care of your tree: http://www.bonsaiweb.com/care/faq/

hope this helps
