"Lavender Bonsai"
How to care for lavenders
French and Spanish lavenders are common herbs grown to train bonsai trees. The sweet marjoram is another of the herbs grown to train bonsai. Each plant is the member of the tender perennial group, which the plants will live for a long 
time if cared for properly. French lavender grows woody shrubs and requires brilliant light and warm environments to survive.
The plants can survive in lower temperatures if grown outdoors, yet the warm environment is recommended. The south window is the recommended spot for growing French lavender bonsai indoors. You can also rest the plants at the west or east, yet south is best. In fact, most bonsai plants require the south, west, or east corners to grow healthy.
Lavandula dentata or French lavender is grown as bonsai trees. The beautiful plant includes leaves with indents. The trees grow woody shrubs; therefore, you can grow the bonsai as a cascade, or grow the bonsai upright. The French lavenders can live a long time.

“Bonsai Variants”
Variants of Bonsai Semi-cascade, Cascade, Moyogi, etc, include Broom and Literati. Broom elms are American-based trees, which its trunk extends in a straight line on a single growth. Its circlet has a selection of minute twigs, which 
glow and form the shape of a broom. Broom bonsai’s are similar to Asian trees, which are cultivated for resisting Dutch elm illness, and are the Genus Zelkova. Learn more about Japanese Greybark Elm seeds to relate to the Broom Bonsai.
Literati trees have elongated, small in width trunks. The trunk grows in a straight line, slants, and/or curves somewhat. At the upper section of the tree, about a third up, branches grow from the tree, and near the top, the branches balance someone at a point.
Variants of bonsai include Italian Cypress, which is one of the Grove series. The tree grows up to 22 inches. Pistachio Grove grows up to 18 inches. Pistachio is an ancient, small Asian tree. The Mediterranean, Asian tree is a member of the cashew family, and yields hard-shell nuts. The kernel is edible. Pistachio Vera is its Latin name.
Jin or Driftwood is another variant of bonsai. Jin may have received its name from Islamic magic spirits, which the mythology of humans and animals take on forms that makes it mischievous of its supernatural powers. The notion of Jin, since it is a broken branch, could represent the soul that forms into spirits, and dies. Since Jin means, “God,’ it is likely that the Jin tree requires careful attention. Jin trees has a trunk and branches that when the elements pass on, it is used or forms driftwood. I mean don’t quote me on this theory, yet after checking a brief background it seems that this logic makes sense.
