Shohin Plum in Pat Kennedy Pot

Post by Watto »

I posted a photo of this some time ago but I failed to locate it. Anyway, here it is now without leaves so you can see the wild branching, I love the wild thing.

Agreed. You could spoil it by making the branches tame and predictable. I like the contrast between the grey trunks, the bright green grass and the deep red pot, too. Please post it in flower.

Very interesting Watto. I have had a number of looks at the photo ... which is a good thing. It's 'otherworldly' which is a description I have not used for Bonsai before but alas, that's what comes to my strange mind. It makes me want to look again ... Cheers for the post. :yes:
Tending bonsai teaches me patience.

I hope it does flower Gavin, and if it does I will certainly post a photo. The stand is one I am in the process of constructing but there is a bit of work to go yet.
Thanks for the comments.
