Bonsai

In a previous posting, I put a picture of a maple tree that sprouted in my lily pot.  I've put it in another little pot for now and am going to try to bonsai it.  From what I've read, bonsai-ing a maple tree may not be too hard.  Basically There is is special soil that can be bought.  The pot used at first should be small, its a training pot.  You trim the roots too, but not the big main one.  Keep it watered of course and give it sunlight.  We'll see how this comes along.  Gotta find a pot for it and pick up some soil.
