I was just wondering, will bonsai trees be able to survive in the garden, i know they are fussy little things, but will they ever get to a point where they are able to survive in the garden.
Also do these plants live in the wild?

Hello,
In nature, it is quite common to see rocks growing in and amongst rocks, particularly, Pine trees. Bonsai trees can also be planted with rocks but keep in mind that with little space for the
To grow your Bonsai in rocks, you will need to find rocks that have holes. This will allow the roots to grow into the rock. The best method the plant/tree in a large container before you plant it in the rocks. roots will be developed and healthy. For the tree, you can choose tree for this type of planning but typically, the Pine tree is favored.
When growing Bonsai, group planting is very common. With this option, you would have groups of plants/trees, which helps to provide asymmetry. Keep in mind that instead of planting things neatly in a row they should be planted randomly, representing nature. You can place group plantings on a slate or in a shallow pot, whichever you prefer. Just be sure your choice provides the
Bonsai with proper drainage. For instance, the slate will generally not have any drainage holes so you would need to first drill them.
