This is the last dig here for grow material , 50% of this stock was sold last week along with numerous Bonsai .
I hope to see some topics on future progression of the material .

Cheers . Ian

We all move onto different things in our lives . im sure we will all miss having you around attempting to tame with what many was insanely difficult material. This virus if anything has taught some of us whats important I guess.... Feel sorry for those in lockdown but at least you and I are allowed out to play :D

G-day - Alpine.
Sorry to hear its the beginning of the end for Alpineart
Hope you find greener pastures in your new endeavours.
With any luck they will involve less digging and more easy living.

While this is true you have left us with a great deal of your accumulated knowledge and it is a great source of information as well as inspiration. I often come across your posts when searching topics and place a high value on your contributions over the many years you have been a member.

All the best in your upcoming adventures, and I look forward to reading more of your posts from yesteryear as I continue my searches.

Hi guys , its been a bloody good journey ,
I certainly challenged myself in area's never ventured before and definitely wont again .It has been the best hobby a man has had and the most labour intensive , unfortunately the hard work cant continue .
I'm blessed to have shared your experiences and journeys as well .I will participate to bring the topics to an end as things disperse then slowly but surely fade into the shadows and grow old gracefully {no hope of that happening }

Live each day as if its your last and dance like there's no tomorrow .

Cheers . Ian

Loaded up and heading for the big smoke to their new home . The new owner manage to squeeze them into a not so squeezy Rav4 .
He has promised some pics for my reference after he tidies them up or re-styles them

Cheers Ian
