Bonsai Tree

Volcanic clay soil Interwoven roots through rocks; Pruned limbs reach for sun.

These little darlings are so difficult to "grow" My brother has a magnificent Bonsai garden..but it takes up hours of him time. Im going to read this to him..he will love it. BG

Great description of the Bonsai, Raul. Their branches do seem to be reaching to the sun. Carolyn
