i will agree that i have no idea what to look for when buyin bonsai stock. but again i have a bonsai nursery fairly close that are always super helpful and will take time out and explain things like y they would pic this one or that one and just being very informative. the trees are slightly higher price than say a nursery but from the trees they have around the shop they def know what there doin. like all the trees are potted in good soil watered approprietly and also some are wired and worked on by someone who knows what there doin. not just someone using regular pruners to hack some stuff up. like i go in there about once a month to just check stuff out and just talk to the lady and gentlemen that work there. there very awesome people and it has helped so much i cant even explain. like i went in there to get some soil and other stuff cuz i was gonna attempt to repot a chinese elm i had. so i asked a few question and whatnot and there like just come in the back and ill show u how to do it. they pulled one of the slms from the shelf took me in back and showed me how to properly root prune and wire the rootball etc. instead of trying to explain it.
