The topic for our last club meeting was Root over Rock.
Les did a great job showing members the aluminium foil method for starting root over rock tridents and the results of his trials over about 5 years.
Here are some of the trees we had on display at that meeting

Re: Root over Rock bonsai
Some nice looking trees there Neil. Are you able to briefly describe the aluminium foil method?

Re: Root over Rock bonsai
Thanks Neil. I'll have a dig around the garden to find some rocks. On another topic you had promised me a twin trunk trident for pickup at the Canberra show. Could you please remember to throw it in?
