First:


So this is what I've got. Horrible photo of myself and the bonsai tree:

It's a Fiscus Bonsai which I hope will count. You can see more about it here:

None of the nurseries around here had white pine bonsais that you see most typically Apparently there's something wrong with the supplier.

And Kord, evidently. And my mom.

 

 

Hey I'm a fan of the Bone Zone.

 

Yeah I'm adding up at least 5 fans then.

I'm not a fan yet, but I admire the dedication he had to get a straw.

 

 

 

 

I got a Ficus Ganthel

This is how it gets:

[Nymh]

Found a little bby bonsai at walmart! I decided to buy it because it was reduced for whatever reason xD

Sorry the pic is so dark -_- I can retake it in another room if need be @Nymh The lighting in my bedroom is awful.

 

 

 

I took a stealth selfie with my coworker's bonsai and fished a straw out of a goddamn garbage can. I hope you're happy.

 

I am.  Also, I'm a fan.  You knew that already.

@Nymh, I'd like to throw a custom handmade felt plushie into the prize pool.

 

Awesome!  Adding it to the first post.  Everyone say THANKS PUNK

So far, this seems to have been the hardest round (or people are dropping out, which also helps whittle away competition).  Only 15 people have completed challenge #7 so far, versus 20 people in round 3.  Only two hours left, find those miniature trees!

I got too busy today, so I didn't have time to look for a bonsai tree today.  Good luck to everyone!

I was in a total bind for several days with work, and couldn't complete this one...but I am ever-vigilant and DO check here (even if I can't come up with something, I love seeing what others submit).

Straw copycat.

Straw copycat.

I would've copied your 'bonsai' if I knew those counted.

[Sweeney]

It is a kind of bonsai I checked with the googles.

I read the fuck out of the tag. I could've done a billion of the ficus things too. 

[Keil]

I updated my last post with both items. 

 

Today was a long day. I'm going to sleep.

Same. I circled the stinkin greenhouse at Lowes a million times.. like "I wonder if this one would count" xD I even asked someone, AFTER seeing plants that looked like some of the ones posted here, if they had any bonsai and they were like "Nah, we haven't had any in awhile"

[Tetiel]

Horribly disappointed. This is the first round I actually haven't had something in my house to qualify. I thought I had everything. Everything. I must remedy this.

[Michaelhex]

LOL guys. Thats why I asked Nymh earlier if what she meant was only the one in the Karate Kid movie I also was in doubt if those plants like Sweeney posted counted or not

CHALLENGE #8 - A SWIM CAP

[Sweeney]

The tree I posted is a pachira aquatica, or a "Money Tree Bonsai". Kay? Kay.

[Swar]

Perfect, I have one of these hidden somewhere. Tomorrow I'll find it

I'm not doubting your legitimacy, I'm kicking myself because I've been unusually stupid lately.

I believe you, just irritated I made a trip to walmart when lowes had it because their employees are dumb xD

 

Swimcap.... I dont think I have one of those around.

[Rocket]

Swimcap???

Oh jeeze... This will be fun trying to find one
