I’ve always wanted to do that and even started a few projects, but moving every 5 years for the job prevented this pursuit==along with training grape vines and my own unique style of miniature plants. We all know bonzai training technique and the Japanese have about 4-5 other major techniques.

The bobbozai would start with what looks like a standard banzai on a small shallow planter but the bottom would be false going into a 52 gallon drum of planting soil. The roots would be massive allowing for the bobbozai to go days maybe weeks without watering. Very Stable.

In all things, my goal is informed by being pragmatic!!! THATS why libertarianism to the extreme is but unthinking dogma AND electing politicians hoping for the needed changes we all can see is buying into the game the house has rigged against us==like all things Wallstreet. Right now, that entire sector of the economy could simply be made illegal with little negative effect.

Expert Advisers with advice like “evaluate the financials” and “diversify” or “don’t invest in anything you don’t understand” are all shills. In the best of cases, unaware of their own blindness, but shills none the less.

Who in their right mind would grow a plant with no roots?

Ha, ha. Silly Hoomans.

#4 Oversized crocs, to be more specific.

Aren’t all Crocs oversized…?

I walked into this situation and asked ” where did you get that weird looking thing?” and the tree said, it started out as a wart on my head…

My guess, the grafted branches were strapped to a real chair, pruned to promote top growth, until they were able to support themselves. It would take about 2 years for a peach tree, apple tree, which are hardwoods. Not sure that a softwood, a grape vine or an olive tree would stand the weight. Just MHO.

I thought it looked pretty neat. Weird, but neat.

#13 Riiiight. Specially if you want to take your seat closer to other people. You know, to talk and stuff. Perfect for alienated loners like you though.
