There is a huge market for bonsai today. There is a constraint in space for people who want to set up their own garden at home. With the development of bonsai, they are now able to buy a variety of such small plants which they can easily maintain on their rooftop gardens or inside their houses. Hence, you can start your own bonsai manufacturing and gifting set up.
The revenue model depends on the way one markets it. Now a days, florists can form a significant part of your customer base, as they include bonsai products in their gifting service.
