Maples are a popular choice for the art of bonsai. Japanese maple ("Acer palmatum"), trident maple ("A. buergerianum"), Amur maple ("A. ginnala"), field maple ("A. campestre") and Montpellier maple ("A. monspessulanum") are popular choices and respond well to techniques that encourage leaf reduction and ramification, but most species can be used.
