Is the bonsai tree a good gift?

A bonsai tree makes a great gift. Depending on the type of bonsai you get - it is a gift that can last a lifetime!! What makes the bonsai a unique gift idea is that often the bonsai is sold by age - so you can match the age of the tree to celebrate various years of passing. For example you might get a 10 year old bonsai to celebrate 10 years on the job for a corporate gift or 5 year old bonsai to celebrate 5 years of cancer survival. Another great option for the bonsai gift is a anniversary bonsai - where you match the year of marriage to the bonsai - celebrating that the bonsai tree started it's life the same year the married couple began their life together. Here is a good bonsai site that actually arranges the bonsai trees by year - http://www.bonsaiboygifts.com/
