Description:

This program was thought up in the best way possible - there was a resident that liked to make bonsai trees. SO, true to RA form, we basically had him do most of our job for us. ;-) Can't get ownership any better than that.

Got some Hall Council money; bought some small shrubs; junipers and the like.

Took the shrubs and the interested residents outside one day, the "expert" resident gave a brief how-to, and away they went. Clipping and wiring; you'd be surprised how into it they got. Guys, no less. ;-) They all spent a while out there, just chillin' and making their bonsai trees, many of which are still alive and well in their rooms.

Instructions Things Needed:

-Small shrubs
-Pots (usually come w/shrubs)
-Wire (approx. gauge of that of a metal coathanger)
-Small clippers, to trim shrubs and wire with.
-Water
-Residents

Other Considerations:

Gotten more money to buy more shrubs... more were interested than we thought.
