Re: Bonsai Tree [Reply]

Hi Rehan,

Well, as much as I love Bonzai trees, the only one that I was able to find was of some common hedge that they decided to stunt (thus calling it Bonzai). I got that from Satwa-where you find all sorts of other plants.

I heard of another place which I havent personally explored yet-nurseries exactly found to the right turn before Garhoud bridge if you're coming from Sheikh Zayed Road, going towards Sharjah.
I'm not sure what breeds you would find though. I find it a bit disappointing.

The funniest was when I purchased this entire set to grow a Bonzai Cherry Blossom. I couldn't even get the seeds to grow!
Tragic, I know. Maybe I just don't have the planting skills to do it right.

Anyway, if you do happen to go to the nurseries at Garhoud, I would be extremely glad to know if they do have an interesting variety of breeds!

Happy Bonzai Search!
