It's been snowing for Kevin

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

The last one is not bonsai related . It's a photo of different glass on a table . The glass is usually "artfully " placed in the garden but we had a little girl visitor staying this week and she collected it and placed it on the table her reason and I quote " I was just cleaning up " .ah everyone's a critic :D

Very nice photos and trees.
A stick in a pot is better than no stick at all. Remember even the best bonsai started as a stick.

Hi Sno,
Mate, that looks very cold. Do you ever have any problems with pots cracking?

Thanks for all the comments guys and girls . I wasn't sure if the photos would be any good because I used my iPad . I normally use a camera and then upload onto the iPad but I lost my thingymejig that transfers them over .
