A bonsai is not a genetically dwarfed plant. It is kept small by shaping and root pruning. It is claimed that a properly maintained bonsai can outlive a full size tree of the same species.
Maple, wisteria, ginkgo, juniper and cryptomeria should be kept in partial shade the entire year for good color. The maples (Acer palmatum and Acer pal-matum dissectum) should be kept well protected from winds to prevent leaf burn.
In Japan where the Ginkgo originates, it can easily live to be 100 years or more. Called 'Chichi Icho' in the native country, which means 'breast' the Ginkgo is a reverenced tree. However, this ancient tree also makes an excellent bonsai.
