Stock Plants in Flower

Post by Watto »

Just for fun I thought you might like to see some of my stock plants that are in flower. All these are soon to be bonsai.
First up is a Callistemon that I dug about 2.5 years ago. I think its a "Little John" but I could be corrected. My apologies for the sun glare.

Next is another Callistemon, Captain Cook I think that was dug about four years ago and will be put into a bonsai pot for the first time this year.

Last but not least is a non-native. A "Golden Privet" that I will allow to flower, but not allow to fruit.

The Cptn Cook is my fav of this bunch... all have promise but this one looks really exciting from my point of view. Look forward to seeing it in a bonsai pot - it's ready! Great work on these, thanks for the pics.
