Why are native bonsai more expensive than grafted bonsai?

First, the reason why native bonsai is more expensive than grafted bonsai is because the cultivation period of native bonsai is long and the number is small, so the price will be more expensive than grafted bonsai. Primary seedlings include sowing seedlings, wild seedlings and transplanted seedlings of the above two seedlings. Grafting seedlings are seedlings obtained by grafting branches or buds of one plant to roots and branches of another plant and healing wounds.

Second, the difference between the original and grafted quality: the original bonsai has developed roots, vigorous growth and long life. If it is used as a breeding material, the operation is simple and the cost is low, but it is easy to produce variation. Grafted seedling bonsai has strong adaptability, can well maintain the excellent characteristics of the mother tree, bears early fruits, and is widely used in fruit tree cultivation at present. But the cost is higher, and the propagation speed is worse than that of seeds.

Survival rate difference: the survival rate of native bonsai and grafted bonsai is different, and the survival rate of grafted seedlings is generally higher than that of native seedlings. However, whether native bonsai or grafted bonsai has its own advantages and disadvantages, we should choose according to our actual situation.
