Our family signed up for the bonsai workshop. We had 5 in our party, and signed up for 1 individual and 2 pairs. You had to pay additional to have a project where a pair can work together $10.00 for the project.
Was supposed to include:
~Expert guidance from the PlantHouse crew on bonsai planting techniques
~Choice of bonsai tree to suit your preferences
~High-quality materials including rock soil, vessel, and decorative elements
~Valuable care tips to ensure the health and longevity of your bonsai
Here is what we got:
Person standing on a ladder giving generic instructions, add rock to the planter, take bonsai out of its pot, knock old soil off, and put plant in planter and add dirt. Use pebbles to decorate the planter.
Had a choice of one type of bonsai plant.
There was no room for 2 people to work together on the project at the same time.
Our care tips was a leaflet and one check out, water plant weekly and if you trim brown branch, it won't grow back, if you trim a light colored branch, it will continue growing.
Not worth the cost for the experience. Have done other things at PlantHouse that were a better value and more fun. read more
