Bonsai Identification
Do you have a bonsai but don't know what kind of tree it is, much less how to care for it? Then please take a look at this library of tree indentifications and see if you can find the tree that looks like yours. Once you have identified it and the care instructions, if you have more questions then feel free to ask them in the regular bonsai forum.

Container Gardening
Container gardening is similar to regular gardening (ie. use good soils and so on....place shade plants in shaded areas, place sun plants in sunny areas etc.).
But, watering and other considerations are so much different with container plants.
Container gardening allows more versatility than any other type of gardening. Whether it's because you don't or can't have a garden, or you just want to add an extra touch to the one you have, container gardening has it's own set of care needs. Share your container ideas, discoveries and problems here!
