Actually they do grow tall. You have not likely seen tall bonsai because growers do not normally show them prior to pruning. Often during development a bonsai will be very tall, then when the trunk thickness and roots are developed enough, the artist will chop the trunk to make it shorter, and over the next few years develop a new leader and branching to make it look like a much older, mature tree that is small.
