Bonsai Initiation

sagarapte2005 · 06-28-2010, 05:34 AM

Hello,
I have recently purchased a Pomogranate, Lemon and Jasmine plant. I wish to make a bonsai out of these. I potted them in normal pots, and now they have started budding. What should be my next step? I regularly water them, and add vermicompost once in a week.

Thanks

Well I guess technically you have already started them down the bonsai path since bonsai translated means tree in a pot. Just use good horticulture practices and keep them alive and happy. Unless they were dug up from somebodys yard or at least a 5 gallon nursery pot, they are probably pretty small so no need to worry about styling for years.
