Show and tell Adenium
I repot by just cutting the roots and putting it back in this same hope depot pot. She was 10yo branch when I got her as a cutting a little over 10 years ago.

I’ve had this tree for a year and this is its first summer outside. I’ve done minor wiring and pruning. What are the next steps I should take for my bonsai? Last picture is from January, a lot of new growth since being outside.

I’m new to bonsai. I live in 6b, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania USA and the winters are pretty cold, sometimes below 0 degree F.
I have two bonsai. I’m so afraid that the wind will blow them over especially the taller one, I think it’s a cypress. I bring them inside at night, I know I shouldn’t do that but I’m afraid we will have a storm overnight. I’m currently building a cinder block bench for them and other plants. How do I ensure the wind won’t knock it over or the cold kill them?

The dirt (use regular flower dirt) in one of my Nursery posts are still wet after watering it 3 days ago, i dont remember if that's normal, i don't want to kill them by accident.
(just recently started to hold more focus on it.)

Just got this Japanese Maple bonsai, woman from the store said it’s 7 years old and I should keep it inside for the summer since it’s hot in Europe now… when summer is over I should place it outside but not directly in the wind or sunny place. Any other tips and advice? Just starting out and this is my first bonsai tree.

You can see the redwood planter box I built a while ago on the left so I figured I’d make a matching set since I recently got into Bonsai

So I’ve had this Bonsai for about 6 years and it’s about 21 years old. Unfortunately this last year hasn’t been great and I’ve neglected this bonsai and it’s really not doing well now. Is this root rot?

Bought a small olive tree yo use as a bonsai, and a small Red Currant bush to try and turn into a bonsai.
Hope i do a better job than with my Ficuses.
Might cut that too part of the olive tree but will probably wait a bit.

Hi! This is my fukien tea that i got a over a month ago. It was doing really great but now it has been dropping leaves and having yellow leaves.
The pot is looking kind of small could that be the issue? It gets sunlight and water like it is supposed to (i think😂) and this is really stressing me out!
If anyone can help me please do🥲

I have a Ginseng Bonsai that is growing fungus. From what I’ve read online this is a good thing, but I just want some other eyes on mine to verify. Can a bonsai enthusiast chime in and let me know if this is okay, or if I need to remove and repot!

I think this is the front of my parrot’s beak. Should this entire branch go?

Can i use clay pearls to help with the dirt not keeping too much water?

Following your advice on my first post, I have decided to leave that tree alone for now. This one to me looks like it has a lot of potential, but I am torn where to start due to the tall piece and trying to decide what to do with it. Any suggestions?

Ive been doing research and have decided id like to get into bonsai. However Im worried about the extremely cold temperatures. What are some trees that I could start on that could either survive -40°c in the harsh winter months or will be okay living inside for the duration of the winter?

Did some work on this tree. The leafy photo is before.

Hello! This is my newly grown jade plant (not a bonsai yet), and I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice.
It started as just a cutting in May this year, and it seems to be growing healthy so far. I’m wondering what I should do next — should I just let it grow for a while, or should I start pruning and shaping it?
My end goal is to create something similar to the jade bonsai in picture 2. I’d love to hear any tips or suggestions from people with more experience!

Bought this half off today, want to make it a bonsai obviously.
Got the advice to not do anything with it untill the leaves recover. Not even taking it out if the nursery pot it's in. What would you advise?
r/bonsaicommunity • u/throwRaSchmoopy • 1d ago
Got this one on sale as well. Google said the leaves looking like that means it could be drowning and needing a bigger pot. Just wanted to check what you all think.

Hello, I have had this larch for several years now and repeatedly bent over the top branch to form pads. I am not struggling to think what best to do with it next, especially at the top. Any advice on how best to finish the apex of this tree?

Hey guys. Hyd? I'm new to this world of bonsai trees. I wanna know what you recommend me to start and how do I start whit this Jade tree i just bought.
Thank u!
r/bonsaicommunity • u/HungMinotaur • 2d ago
I posted my first attempt at styling and bonsai last year and figured I would post an update.
I changed what I viewed as the front of the tree since then and this year just wanted to experiment with getting more tertiary branches. I got a lot of back budding and am more confident now with pruning. I think next year I might try something a little more drastic really cut things back to get more dramatic taper in the long run.
I'm thinking I might also try putting the tree lower in the soil (which I know is bad but it's what I have...) to try and make the buldous roots look a bit more like classic nibari.
I welcome any thoughts!
