Hi there, I bought our Bonsai as a seed. We have grown it for 2yrs but it doesn’t look like a normal bonsai tree & what kind of pot should we transfer it to?

There is no such thing as bonsai seed. The seed you planted will grow to be a normal tree. Bonsai is not a species of trees but a way of keeping trees small by a whole range of techniques, too extensive to explain in a few words.
What kind of tree is it?

the problem is.. Bonsa is not a tree species. It is a tree grow using a range of techniques that keep is small and increase the density of branches.

As a 2 year old plant, you have mainly a concern to grow a bigger trunk, and nothing else for the moemnt. Put is in t a bit pot so it can grow.
