This has to be one of the best commercial segments I've ever seen.
Really did some justice to our cause I think.

Well done Marcela!

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Thank you everyone!
Thank you for the very nice comments and I'm really happy that so many got to see what my garden looks like, no unwanted visitors though :lol:
My passion for our natives gets stronger by the day and I love sharing it with anyone who is willing to listen! :whistle:
I hope more of you here are inspired and willing to give them a go because they are so rewarding.

P S; Melaleuca's are my favourites too!

This was great to see, as an Aussie exile abroad it really struck home of why I wanted to start bonsai which was to have a little taste of Australia over here in Spain.

Thanks Marcela!

As a side I have already seen a few mentions of the segments in various facebook gardening groups, I hope it inspires them to start out too.
