Re: Bonsai at the Bay
They are looking good, with all the rain we have had, I have had a bit of yellowing off on a few needles. We have had our average yearly rainfall already this year.
I am taking one of the JBP's to the Toowoomba Bonsai Group to do some wiring with the new guys. Beautiful trunk will make a top slanting tree when it is finished. If I can remember I will post some pictures after I have finished.
Cheers
Mark

Re: Bonsai at the Bay
Hey Mark
Good to hear the pines have held up well. I bet for a few weeks most had bricks under them at one end, to help them drain.
A couple of pictures for you of some pines wired earlier in summer. The needle development was very quick once the sunlight was allowed in.
Chat soon Mase

Re: Bonsai at the Bay
Just wanted to share a couple of trees with the members. Just wanted to show the aerial root action on a fig that have started to fuse with the trunk.
Also a nice Japanese black pine with some radical trunk movement. Still trying to decide what to do with the apex/ angle etc. Any suggestions would be great thanks.

Re: Bonsai at the Bay
Although it's just 20 minutes away it was only this morning that I first got down to meet Mason. The trip was just a look & see after taking my mother around the garage sale....it quickly turned into a look, see & buy trip....
Walked away with this little collection of 3 maples, a black pine & a juni.
While I see something in all of them, there was one that really said pick me!!!!
And then it yelled 'take me this way!!!!!' (please excuse my infantile paint skills. )
Now just to find or create a rock to match the vision.......
BTW, the maple is sitting on a marble turntable we picked up for $2 at a garage sale on the way down.
Thanks Mase, hope the kids enjoyed the festival.

Re: Bonsai at the Bay
Hi Mark
Sorry about the slow reply, great to meet you and your Mum the other day. I hope you enjoy working on your new little trees.
Here is a little picture of some recently dug junipers in July, settling in nicely. Not much die back so fingers crossed they keep shooting ahead.
And a nice stumpy fig, check out the can for size of this little puppy.

Progression series of a tool roll
Here are a couple of pictures of the Australian Made tools rolls proudly being produced / banged out in my garage in Huskisson NSW.
I will be getting individualized embroidery done for each tool roll sold, depending on what people want embroided. Eg. My tools or , I am the giant amonst my trees etc. If you have any suggestions for embroiding let me know.
Here are some of the steps which includes one cow hide, blades for cutting , colours , temp lets etc .
The tool roll with the scissors in it was a test run with stitching and has many errors , but at least it will give you an idea of finished product.

Re: Bonsai at the Bay
Nice!!! I'm sure there are many witty intelligible bonsai quotes that could be embroiled in them!
Perhaps "my other club is the internet"...
