Bonsai garden finally in shape

[Steve_C]

Yep that's a jade. I haven't owned one myself but everything I have ever heard about them is that they grow really well/fast and they take really well to pruning so you should be able to do a lot of work on it over the summer months.

Nice,this one is about eight inches tall from the top of the soil.

Picked this little guy up at HD.It looks like a jade plant but I don't know what it is exactly as the label on the pot has no species identification.

I’m almost positive that’s a jade plant. We’ve had one in the family for over 30years on our hill.

In the ground it’s taller than me and bigger than my brother.

K krichardson check this beauty out! I'm a member of a bonsai auctions group on facebook and this one just came up. Starting bid is $480 so way out of my price range, but take a look at it. It's an azalea, look at that trunk it's so damn nice looking! I would love to own that sucker. Bet it's beautiful when its in bloom.

 

[krichardson]

That is one good looking piece,love thst trunk.

I was hoping one of you could tell me what to do next with my bonsai project.

Ive got these two meyer lemon trees that i want to bonsai. Ive been growing them for two years in pots, moving them inside in the winter. Do i need to start trimming them? Move to a bigger pot? The one is getting pretty tall...
