Since I'm still a bonsai-baby, I haven't developed a definitive list but I have to agree with you all. In the last two years, I like working with J. Boxwood, Shimpaku, Crepe Mrytle, Olive and Quince. I have just started with Bald Cypress. Elms & Maples are very forgiving but Azalea and Pine are challenging! My first and favorite tree is a Zelcova. I did a trunk chop on it and in eighteen months it's already on it's way to becoming a nice broom, it's a fast grower! BTW Happy Valentine's Day!
