Hello, My name is Joel. I am 27, and i live in central minnesota. My interest in bonsai started 2 years ago when i bought a "ready made" bonsai from the home depot, complete with the solid mass of rocks that seemed to be bonded with resin!

Since then i have gathered a few small ficus from homedepo (ones that were barely worked on, and did not have a "bonsai" look. I also found an adenium obesum from there. I also have begun growing my own ficu and adenium from seed.

I grow my plants indoors because i am just renting an apartment and have no good outdoor space. I have 4, 4 foot florescent tubes for lighting. also the room window faces south and gets some light.

I am going to try and figure out how to add pictures of all the plants that i got.
