I tried my hands at bonsais a few times, but they usually don't hold very long. Kind of difficult to find the right living conditions if you don't know the exact species of the tree in the first place, so I'll probably not buy them again in the next best flower shop... Now I'm living in a rather dark apartment, do any of you folks know any kinds of trees which can be turned into bonsais and survive in a rather shady environment? It's not like it's pitch black in here, but all I have is one window facing north and now during winter the amount of daylight is rather slim.
