I am Jeff Germann. I have been interested in Bonsai for years. I have purchased and killed many, many "mallsai". You know what mallsai are, those are those little juniper trees you purchased at the mall, or along side the road that sold for about $45.00 and you were so excited, because now you have a beautiful little piece of living artwork that you can display at home. A few weeks later you discovered the thing was either dead or dying. Many people give up on bonsai after that. I have, several times. However, I never really wanted to walk away from that beautiful little tree. I wanted to have some bonsai of my own. So I kept trying. I am still new to this, I still haven't had a bonsai survive past one year... but I am going to keep trying.

I want to learn as much as I can, and I am sure there are others out there in the Ozarks as well, that love these little trees. So I have started this club.

I hope you will join me. All enthusiasts of Bonsai are welcome here. From the novice, like me. to the experts. Especially the experts, please join us, share your knowledge. I will share my zeal.
