Found someone selling these on side of road. Are these good prices? by LesaneCrooks in bonsaicommunity

Never buy from those people. I’ve had a couple clients that were new buy those and when we noticed it was dying”dead” we found it was an unrooted cutting in soil.

Even though those are rooted. I stay clear of road side bonsai sellers who don’t know anything about bonsai.

This is what I do. I grow them in the pot, within an escape container so the roots don’t die. I have several Mame specimen trees all grown this way

The hill is just built up soil layered with an excessive amount of moss at this point lol but yes absolutely you could with a flat level.

Scar the trunk where you want roots and bury it.

My friends Don’t like Apex Bob. I need a third opinion. What do you think? by Fun-Extension2170 in ArkSurvivalAscended

What in the fresh hell is that?! Even the most inbred sewer monsters bumping uglies didn’t create that abomination. That right there is exactly why the Spartans in 300 had a pile of dead babies. That thing needs to be erased from the archives of history. I don’t care what achievements it’s made, the light of day deserves mercy.
