A mini-bonsai is a small living green plant grown in a container. The plant may flower, fruit and provide the charm of passing seasons. The largest mini-bonsai fits on a lady's hand and the smallest on a baby's hand. These small size bonsai are also known as shohin-bonsai or mame-bonsai but we call them mini-bonsai. A mini-bonsai is just a twig of a larger bonsai, chumono or omono (large and medium size bonsai), but it can show age, just like large bonsai. People tend to think 'bonsai is difficult' but such feelings are changing due to the mini-bonsai's casual aspects.
