Mod Req: Bonsai trees in OB

[paulisconfused]

I know that there is a pinned topic for this stuff but there are so many pages that I was afraid that my request would get overlooked there.

 

Anyway, I was just thinking that it would be totally awesome if You could keep a garden of bonsai trees in OB. At the minimum it would be cool if you could buy different sizes, styles and species of plants that are trained as bonsai. Along with being able to buy display stands to set them on. Basically make them a placeable item that you could put anywhere you want. Also keep in mind that bonsai trees are not necessarily tiny. They can be up to 5 feet tall or as small as you want.

 

I would be perfectly happy with the above mentioned mod, but to take it a step further you could:

 

Build a Japanese style mansion with a garden area with koi ponds and places to put your bonsai.

 

you would have to water, fertilize and trim them periodically to keep them alive and looking nice.

 

certain species like Japanese maples would change colors with the seasons or drop there leaves in the winter or flower (on flowering kinds) in the winter.

 

for research purposes you could look at:

Japanese Maple, Trident maple, Boxwood, Bald Cypress, Redwood, Juniper, Black or white pine.

 

 

Here are some awesome bonsai trees for species and style reference:
