Most Bonsai Plant only survive outdoors, In some places where the temperature is very high and it can only have a stable temperature inside there bonsai can also survive indoors but in places, we should only grow it outside in sunlight because here the temperature is sometimes very low and it can damage the plant badly.

Bonsai defined

*The word “Bon-sai” (often misspelled as Bonzai or banzai) is a Japanese term which, literally translated, means “planted in a container”. This art form is derived from an ancient Chinese horticultural practice, part of which was then redeveloped under the influence of Japanese Zen Buddhism.

It has been around for well over a thousand years. The ultimate goal of growing a Bonsai is to create a miniaturized but realistic representation of nature in the form of a tree. Bonsai are not genetically dwarfed plants, in fact, any tree species can be used to grow one.*
