My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Bamboo Bonsai training

15 years ago

We were recently at Selby Gardens in Sarasota and my 12 year old son won a bamboo bonsai. It has one shoot about 12 inches tall. We live in Westchester County Ny , he is unsure how to train it and how to care for it. He did some research on the web but was unable to come up with anything. Any help appreciated.

Thanks,nancy
