does anyone here have one? and if so are they a lot of work? I'd like to get one to help me relax.

no bonsai tree, but i do have a bonsai kitten

my mum had about 3 a few years ago but she managed to kill all of them, so that makes me think they might be a bit hard to keep alive. Depends how well you are at looking after things i suppose...they're quite cute. So small

just need watered and fed every so often.

i just had a look on the web and prices seem to range from Â£30 - Â£500 . It seems as thought they get more expensive the older they are. The 40 year old ones were the most expensive. wtf have they been for the past 40 years tho? lol.

They've been in the wash, that's how they get so small

They have been living in the wild on tiny ledges halfway down massive cliffs with treacherous rocks and whirlpools at the bottom.

I got one for my granny and it was about 10 buck.
