Rowan Tree/Mountain-ash - Bonsai/Topiary

Posted by mediadiva Zone 7 (My Page) on

Anyone have any idea where I could find this online to buy as a topiary or even better a bonsai? I read it made a good topiary, in american it is called mountain-ash (I am in the US as well but I was researching rowan trees). I wanted to name my new daughter rowan (due summer 09!) and when i read it could be made into a bonsia I thought how cute it would be as a little plant in her room. I searched but couldn't find any.

Depending on where you live, you might be able to find one growing wild and dig it up. However, I would not recommend putting it in her room. Mountain Ash trees (I am referring to Sorbus americana) are outdoor plants, and, if they are like most other temperate plants, they will die if they are put indoors.
