Hello, never grown one as a bonsai but in the garden Pittosporum are easy to grow, tough plants that respond well to pruning so i guess its worth a try. Could have quite large leaves I guess so maybe as a large sized bonsai. Good luck if you try one :D

I am pretty sure Ant had a couple and he might have got rid of them, i beleive if i remember correctly they have large internodal spacing which make them very hard to work with. cant remember any more, do a few searches on here and you might find it, maybe search ant's posts too ;)
SHOHIN YAKUZA!!!
