Winter 2015

Australian conditions vary from one extreme to another. What do you do and when do you do it?

Typical jerk move by another Australian Native tree dropping branches... At least it wasn't on your house!

I don't trust Bonsai, they are a little shady.

Even a cheap pot is a loss . Must have been bad , the worst I got was a pine blown off the bench .

Tree pruning a tree, now I have seen everything :lol:
It's a impressive table to stand up to a bartering. I'm glad nothing else was in the way.
Patience is often a surprise.

Hi Jarad . When you see the winds we get here it amazes me more trees aren't flying around . Most of the buildings here have ' scars' from past winters .

Hi Graham . I hope the pine is ok . The tree that got hit was that magnolia with the funny looking knee root . The root is still there for now . I think I will remove it tomorrow because I have to put the tree into a smaller pot . I don't have any pots the same size as the broken one . The tree is in my shed tonight because I didn't have time to do any thing with it today .

Hi Time8theuniverse . A lot of my trees are styled by my enviroment :palm: living in a forest in the snowy mountains is definitely not benign.

Hi Jason . Yes , I am starting to get quite a few trees that have a history developing :palm: . I have a plan to ultimately build a bunker type glass house . At the moment my set up is a all over the place . A bit like the weather .

At least when they're spread out, you're less likely to lose the lot in one go :palm: this hobby is hard enough at times without nature throwing her 2c in :no:
