JoAnn:

I agree with you in many ways. I make exclusively tropical bonsai. Many of them are obtained collecting in the field or nurseries. As tropical trees, they respond very different than temperate trees. I do not know how long have you been a bonsaist, but you have two options: First, to follow forever the rules of many. It doesn't mean they are always right. In another hand you can (*according to your experience) to be a master, breaking rules, following what the tree (nature) dictates, andd what your artistic sense determinates. Then you will find you will make stunning bonsai from rejected trees.
