Bonsai is very meaningful, living art. Today, I am working on a tree that will be a part of a giant bonsai forest heirloom that I will pass down to my grandchildren. I have 6 grandchildren so I will create a 6-tree bonsai forest and potentially add more to represent myself and my children. This is going to be a very exciting project, so please follow my progress!
