the size is ideal for training a tree that comes in a kit.
As you can see in the picture below the tree is a little bigger than
what most people would consider a seedling or starter tree. The bonsai kits or starter trees that we have picked are the easiest to grow indoors and
can tolerate many adverse conditions. You still need to prune these
trees, the only difference is the shape has already been done by the
grower at the bonsai nursery.

Bonsai Tree Kits Beginners: How To Make A Bonsai
Beginners and students often share the same concern, about growing
and maintaining a healthy plant from a bonsai tree kit. Your main goal is to control the amount of
stress that a your tree will take and still remain healthy.
It comes
down to too much or too little when it applies to all aspects to Bonsai
culture, including air, water, soil, sun, nutrients, temperature,
altitude and pruning.
Anyone wanting to make a bonsai tree from a kit successfully, must have
patience and a willingness to experiment and then accept the results. I
don't mean buying a bunch of books, it has more to do with learning as
you go and not being afraid to try something different to give your
bonsai tree your own personal touch.
The growth process takes
time, and there are no shortcuts. It is easier than you think to grow a
healthy plant from a bonsai tree kit and have it for many many years. If
you want to have the bonsai experience and not wait for that length
of time have a look at the beginner
