Thumbs up

As my avatar suggests.

I am a perpetual learner. It is nice to see that I am not the only one. I have just read this thread all the good information and then some. Your analogy of people and there lawns and rose bushes was sweet.
My wife and I used to do shopping centre displays, to make money to supplement our pension.
We would often get that argument about cruelty. It stopped and they would walk away when asked the question.
Although one smart#*!s said she did not. She lived in the bush. So my only retort was when were your plants watered and fed she Blushed and walked off in a huff.
Just thought I would thank you and pass on my little bitof info.

Just to add another myth that I often hear when people look at my trees.

They sometimes seem to think that a bonsai is a miniature genetic version of the tree and seem shocked to learn that a bonsai placed back in the ground will reach the same size as its fully grown brethren if left unchecked.
