Hi people,
I have a Cupressus macrocarpa (Lemon-scented cypress) and I was wondering if anyone had trained one as a bonsai, or have any thoughts about its suitability?

Re: Lemon-scented cypress
Hi Glenda, these trees tend to have very strong coarse growth. Of course you can grow them as bonsai but you may be better putting your efforts into a more suitable species.
