I have a ton of various size/shaped bonsai (without pots) and was wondering if they'd be a popular trade item?
Willing to trade for Bonsai?
Sounds interesting, What type plant?
I would love to trade. What are you looking for?
Betty
Oh yes, do tell us what you're looking for! I hope its an adenium... or something like that.
Had a really nice one. Forgot to give it a plant sitter. Now its clinging to life.
Privet, roses and various trees from my neck of the woods.
I can also train/trim-etc plants you already have. We'd have to work something out about shipping though.
I used to do this professionally when I lived in Florida so I really enjoy it, lol.
I should have made myself more clear, lol.
I can't trade right now, I was posting for future reference. Im covered in poison oak and can't gather them up for trades, LOL.
Now that I know people are interested when I get better I'll start trimming some up and I'll post pictures,details and a list of what I'm looking for.
I am not really looking for much in particular, check my trade list and you'll get a feel for what I like. Perennials are a good thing to.
I can't keep alot of houseplants until I know Ill get my greenhouse in this year. (small trailer, no space, lol.)
Most Bonsai will be outside plants only.
I may be able to do some rather large ones but, not sure about how to ship those so that's something to think on.
I normally do Mame type though.
I can create a nice arrangement on rocks/logs but the person Im trading with would have to pay shipping. (I'll pay for what they send me).
If I had money I'd pay to ship them but that'd get expesive fast, LOL.
If you have something you already are growing or a special rock/log if you ship it to me I can plant it and (at your cost,sorry) ship it back.
If I get enough intrest I may do some just for the heck of it.
Now I'm excited, haha. Lemme definately get back to this post ASAP. Just keep posting with who's interested and what you're looking for.
If you have any questions post here or DMail me. :-)

This sounds very interesting if you think this could work for my zone 5a.
I actually have a few questions to you if you don't mind. I'll D-mail those.
Coolio, will await your mail after I smoke a ciggy, LOL.
HI, have lots of things from your want list, interested in something that would do well as an indoor in winter, as I am a chilly zone 5. May take me awhile to dig, but if you have somethings that would fit..will dmail you list.
Cool.
Ill be taking alot of pictures in the coming weeks of the trees I plan to trade.
Im posting Tutorials in the bonsai forum as well. I ran out of edits for the day so Ill have to finish that one up tomorrow.
Do you have any bouganvillea bonsai? Take a look at my trade list and see if there is anything you are interested in. I currently have some Night Blooming Cereus cuttings that have already started to roots. These NBC will produce almost-dinner-plate-size blooms. I also have lots of Butterfly Gingers tubers. They can be planted outdoor in your zone. They would die down in the winter and come back in the spring, very fragrant flowers, likes partial shade.
No I don't have that. Sorry, lol.
I'll get a list ready of what I have when I can.
I can't trade any right now, this thread is to see what peoples intrests are gonna be.
