[Category 1] Miniature natives

Post by Pup »

These are all miniature tree's bar one grown from cuttings over the last 4 years.
Each tree will be shown on its own, with its name and some description, then on a Mame rack. As a whole display.

Very nice Pup, an excellent return for a few years work. Here's proof that trees don't necessarily have to be 20 plus years old (or claimed to be 20 plus years old - as many retailers will do with a 5 year old tree :evil: ) to be desirable.

Cheers

You have a simply super talent of picking the right pot for your trees. These trees are really lovely. Good work.

Howzit Pup,

Really great work mate!! :D Because I live in a condo I can have only so much large tress and I'm at my quota. Now I"m looking into doing Shohin bonsai. Mahalo for the inspiration. :D
