Hello everyone,
My name is Marlon. Im Tanzanian, living in Tanzania and about three weeks into my bonsai safari. During my uni days, around 2010, in Malaysia I bought a bonsai, which unfortunately though no unexpectedly, died. I gave up since then, until now.
I have few trees, all in development. Three acacias, one guava, an unidentified adenium, two terminalia mantaly, and a local tree i still can't identify, and an unknown conifer. The worst thing about being a bonsai enthusiast in Tanzania is access. Most online shops don't cater to East Africa, so no access to bonsai wire, tools, books, basically you name it, and its hard to impossible to get.
I joined this forum in hope of getting in touch iwth people who are facing similar problems, have solutions. Mainly I just wanted to talk to other people who look at a tree and think, 'that's beautiful!'
