i have seen on many gardening shows the japanese plant bonsai?

how do i get started on one? what specialty stores do i go to if it harder to make then what they show? what plants can i use? can there be drought tollerant or do they come that way already? are there any ways in australia that i can plant these? can they be left in the pot or do you have to take them out of the pot after a while? where is the best place to keep them? shade, sun or both? how long do they take to establish and are they suited to the cold weather if left outside?

1. You can make any plant into a bonsai,but there is a special way to prepare it.Check on a website-Google in -Bonsai.
2. bonsai trees are very fun in woodland Washington the state there is a place called tsugawa nursery i went to school with them they taught me a little about them they can tell you a lot most of the trees were evergreen type in small pots they would trim them to stunt them plant them on rocks feed them nutrients wrap wires around them to shape them
