FredL: Thank you a lot for your reply. My little malsai just died, my seeds that I collected from trees don’t grow, the law prohibits me from picking trees from the wild, and purchasing a tree is way too expensive...so your reply made me feel a little better. I will definitely look into getting a permit when I want to collect something from the parks around here.
Jay: Thank you for that URL. It seems to be an interesting site to learn more about what we’re discussing. As I said earlier in this thread, I am just starting bonsaiing, so this is all good information for me. I am also glad you didn’t get upset,...because I’ve seen people get banned from this site when talking about their kleptomania
Thanks,
Robin
