Re: Showing my Shohin
Love your minis, Steven! Geez, how do you manage, working on bonsai THAT SMALL? If I tried it, my fingers would get in the way.

Re: Showing my Shohin
Hi Steven...
I'll enjoy watching the progress of that 1st prunus sucker. I love where you're taking it.
And that jasmine is really intriguing... very nice mate.
Great job on keeping all these looking fab. After seeing all your mini tree posts, I'm sure at some point I'll eventually be convinced to try growing trees of this size.
After all, it was you who really set my Casuariana obsession into gear.

I'm absolutely loving the 'Parrotia persica', and the 'Honeysuckle', and I still love that 'Prunus'.
Very nice work there Steven.

Re: Showing my Shohin
I think most people when they ground grow an Oak for 2 years would not be able to get them in a Mame or small Shohin pot!!!!
Some might say you failed there because we ground grow in order to put on trunk girth
To all and sundry , these are no more difficult to grow than larger tree and I enjoy seeing Steven wander in on Tuesday nights with 10 trees to work on and go home with them looking like this
They take only few minutes each to repot and and prune so maintenance does not take long Wiring is a pain though for those with big fingers !!!
