Can You Learn Bonsai Without Owning Any Trees? w/ Nicole Yabut - Ep 52
Do you need a yard full of trees to get good at bonsai? Nicole Yabut spent years leveling up her skills with zero trees of her own. In this episode, host Addison Galambos chats with Nicole about the hidden power of the "no-tree" path in which she built real expertise through volunteering, docenting at the Bonsai Garden at Lake Merritt, and working in seasoned collectors' gardens. They explore why learning on mature material beats owning a crowded collection, how to handle burnout, and the social barriers that shape who enters the hobby.
