How to Bonsai For Beginners

Learn how to Bonsai for Beginners. In this video I show you how to create a simple Bonsai tree from a young piece of garden centre material. You don't need any fancy bonsai tools to do this! Hi I'm Adam btw!

All you will need is:
Root Rake / Bent Fork (this is what I used)
Garden scissors for pruning branches / roots.
Aluminium Wire

When I first got started with Bonsai, my first assumption was that bonsai were specific trees! When in fact, any tree can be made into a bonsai!

When deciding on the species of tree to use - I reccommend finding a tree that is naturally "small growing" like young junipers or trees with naturally small leaves like buxus or azalea.

The species of tree used in this video is called a Juniper Squamata also commonly known as a "Blue Star" Juniper.

Thank you for watching the first video of NotionBonsai.
