- My wife bought a little miniature x-mas tree at the local drug store here
- in the San Francisco USA area. This was a stupis little tree with
- decorations on it and cost her a whole $2. Since x-mas is over and she no
- longer has any interest in the tree she has donated it to me for Bonsai
- experimentation. The tag attached say that it is a "false cypress" and
- that it is "native the the pacific north-west". It goes on to state that
- the trees are "popular in Europe" and miniature x-mas trees. This could
- all be marketing but here are my questions.
-
- 1. Has anyone ever heard of a False Cypress
- 2. Can this tree be used in Bonsai
- 3. If yes to the above, how is it usually styled?
-
- Thanks in advance for any help provided,
