My son Christian's jade bonsai
My youngest son would like some input on this tree. It was purchased as a starter from a local bonsai nursery. We potted it and then pruned it. He would like to know what you think. It is probably about 2-3 years old.

Re: My son Christian's jade Bonsai
Guys, I'm so happy that yer boy has the urge to bonsai!!! Looks like you guys have done your homework. The Jade is a succulent so Remember this tree wants Lots of sun, Dry growing conditions, water when slighty dry, doesnt need much fertilizer. and very fast draining soil! Keep it up, buddy! Ps I had an oak tree that claimed to be Jewish once.

Re: My son Christian's jade bonsai
Good suggestions BN, and don't forget no frost on the jade plant and don't keep it damp for extended periods or you can get a mean case of root crown rot.
On styling, you might consider at the next replant to bring the trunk out of the soil at a slight angle. That orientation may add interest and lead to some styling possibilities. The vertical trunk may suit the plant at this time. Regards, Matt
