Any bonsai experts out there?

I've managed to start a number of Common Olive (Oleo Europea) seedlings but have no idea what to do next.

Are they suitable for bonsai at all?

    I bought a olive bonsai kit in Mallorca, so I suppose so :) I haven't attempted to grow mine yet.

    How did you get them to grow, and out of interest which stones did you use?
