I would like to start growing my own Bonsai. I have very small Crepe Myrtle starts and would like to make them into Bonsai but I dont know where or how to start. What do I do first? How do I pot it and what materials do I need? Will Crepe Myrtle make a good Bonsai? I also have an older Azalea that I would like to Bonsai. Right now it is growing outside but I do not like where it is or how it is growing there, so I was thinking of making it into Bonsai. Where do I start? Any help is appreciated.
