Up for consideration is my yearly offering of bare root seedlings for bonsai or landscape use. Range in size from 4-7 inches with toothpick thick trunks about. For years i either grew these ‘runts’ out for an additional season, gave them away, or tossed them. I call them ‘runts’ because with tridents and japanese maples they seem to create a forest effect when growing them from seed. Some grow tall and strong and shade out those around it.

Overwintering is easy by placing them in. We heat our garage with a simply. Keeping the garage just above freezing, but it can dip down in the 20’s. The key is getting them.
