Me and my friend decided to start selling Bonsai trees as a way to make a little extra money and spread the art. We are only offering two kinds as of now, The Japanese Holly and the Japanese Juniper. The Holly trees are $45 a piece and the Junipers are $40. Let me know if you guys like what you see.
Japanese Juniper 3 yrs old - $40

nope, water daily, mist them every other day, cut off new growth twice a year. They just have to be in a sunny spot outside

I used to, but they didn't survive the winter :(
I am, however, getting more within the month. Tridents are harder to find. If you want, i can get one though.

haha, I will try my hardest to find one for you. I need to research to see which are easiest to care for. We try not to get trees that are a pain in the ass to keep alive considering their price.

To a point where it looks like a tree? About 5-8 years. Mine are all three years or older.
This one is probably 40+ years old haha. patience is the key.

I am working on a ficus forest at the moment, Still a few months before it's done...

The large Ficus is in a 13" oval mica pot. I just re-potted it so I can't sell it for a couple months. It is a VERY nice tree though
The smaller Ficus is in a 9" oval clay pot that is glazed blue. Both are great indoor trees.

How are the Holly trees indoors? I need something that can be fine in partial to low sun, indoors.

The third ficus would be perfect for that. Holly trees are outdoor only.

Let me know how the large ficus is. I'm seriously contemplating the small oval container ficus if you still have it.

No fruit tree can survive indoors and produce fruit. In order for a tree to produce fruit it must be able to get pollinated by something, thus it needing to be outside. In addition to that, 90% of fruit trees cannot be bonsai trees, they just are not suitable. Out of the 10% that can, none of them are easy to take care of. I don't want to sell a fruit tree to anyone for $100 and then a month later it die. I have been doing this for years and I really don't even mess with fruit trees. I HIGHLY recommend a Ficus or the Junipers we have if you want a low maintenance tree.

Ficus = easiest indoor
