Bonsai Basics 101

Bonsai Basics 101
Instructor: Darrell Whitley

Saturday, Aug. 16 | $75

Do you have a “Bonsai Disaster” story? This class will focus on successfully growing bonsai for the long term that you can be proud of. The class will focus on Tiger Bark Ficus, which is a good indoor option when first starting in bonsai. There will be opportunities to work with traditional outdoor bonsai species like pine, spruce, or juniper. The class will teach you how to develop a compact and healthy bonsai and we'll send you home with your own bonsai.

Note to Participants: All Materials will be provided
