All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

A better question might be: would it be better suited for a "houseplant" community, since this is more gardening and general nature inspired?

That sounds great! Maybe have a name for the series so that people know to look for your other posts.

Incidentally though, if there is a houseplant community please let me know. I got a bonsai for my birthday and I really don't want to kill it

Quick FYI... most bonsai need to stay outside 365 days a year. They're not plants. They are literally trees.

Can Bonsai survive in cold dry climates like Canada's? Maybe that's a stupid question to ask about a tree.

Not a stupid question. Small pots will freeze much harder than a tree in soil. You need to be more careful, especially with trees that are not as cold tolerant.
