ZenBonsai
Take care of your virtual bonsai.
ZenBonsai is a Virtual Bonsai game. Adopt a tree, water it and watch it grow. The tree grows slowly over the days, so this is a game of patience and calmness. Cut some leaves, bend some branches, strip off some bark. Especially: keep your zen. The bonsai tree is a reflection of your inner self. If all goes well, after a few days you'll have your own beautiful Bonsai.

I do

in order for something to work, you need to add the page with the game to your favorites and go every day to water and cut off extra branches, especially those that grow down
Is there someone who plays it too? :(

How do I move the sun? The curser is not allowing me to move it when I select the sun and my little tree has too much light.
I had this same problem at first but all you have to do is click in it and then just move tour mouse slowly it will not work if you do it quickly and remember to not hold down the button while you move it click once when you have it in the position that you want it.
and you should cut of that blob of growth you tree will be more happy if you do.

this is a bonsai and so is this 
but this "tree" that you have heer is not even close to being a bonsai and this is not a bonsai either these are just over grown house plants!>
I think I'm done here. Had a nice run, but not doing anything to improve the stuff I've mentioned really sucks. Plus, after you accidentally cut a 83 day old branch and don't have an undo button, it sort of upsets ya. Good luck all.
you need to increas the in tree water. (the red line)
This is what my 32 day old tree looks like!
this is not a bonsai this is just a over grown house plant!!!
My bonsai is 3 days old and it looks good!
Nice job! Mine is close to two months old, but I had to leave it unattended for 3 days, I'm afraid it's not going to make it. Still fun starting a new one, but I'm hoping this one makes it.
Still be great to be able to cut this stuff off.
An undue button would be nice about now. I cut my 39 day old tree in half accidentally. Would love to be able to trim the dead foliage below the base line of the pot too. Thanks.
How many days does it take to grow?
Within hours you can have a little fellow. My first few died within a couple days and one made it a couple weeks. My latest one I've been able to make sure it stayed watered better and kept dead leaves cut off (which help the plants stress) the best the application let's us. It's impossible to cut them off if they are too low or on the backside of the tree. Here is one of mine at only 4 days old.
this is what a bonsai is sopossed to look like!
I really wish I could cut the dead foliage off the backside of my tree. The tree stays stressed because I can't select and cut them.
Hi! Yes I should really do something about this... Thanks for your message! :)

Hi! The bonsai always grows in the direction of the sun (more or less) you should not place it too close...
Still feeling pretty happy with the bonsai
Feeling pretty much just as happy with this bonsai, it is gorgeous and I am gorgeous
I am very happy with this bonsai so far.
