Yep. They are full size. The Boug is not much different in size comparing to when it was in the wheelbarrow in the first few pics I took at the begging.

Hi
I passed these on to others and don’t know how they are going. Hope that they will appear here at some stage

Fabulous colour and shape!

Thanks Mel
I forgot to mention that this one is a "winter" boug meaning it only flowers once a year. I many times was thinking of grafting other types of bougs on it but now decided to keep the way it is. After all, it's not just flower display that matters for bonsai.
Cheers

Love your boug mate! It's beautiful and what a great job you've done there so far.

Thanks guys for the nice encouragements. I almost left it to die at some stage. Looking forwards to make it better from now.

great video kvan and man that thing looks heavy, I love the ingenuity with harness and metal pipe.

Have you tried to strike the broken branch so that you can graft it back on later?

Thanks buddy for mentioning it. You got my mind. I did put it in the propagating sand. Hope it works. Didn’t have someone to help holding the phone to film otherwise you would see how bad my face was when I broke that lol.
