A couple of young Leptos coming intom spring

Post by wattynine »

Just love the spring bursts on Leptos and Mels, I thinks its been said before, "who needs flowers."
They have just sprung up in my bonsai area so I cannot bear to discard them.
The one in the green pot was supposed to be root over rock but I have obviously erred on this one because it hasn't "set".
The one in the rock has been there since it was a seedling and is responsible now for cracking the rock in two, 7 years.

I agree totally with this. Mels are awesome and give great results.
Good colour and tiny foliage.
