Baeckea virgata 'Clarence River' 2

Progression thread: Baeckea virgata 'Clarence River' 2

This species is one of the greatest material to use for Bonsai, just like many of the Baeckea family.

The best all-round species of all the Baeckea I have tried.
The foliage is very thin and short, only about 10-20 mm long. They are very hardy, tolerate a heavy root reduction and can grow in both light and heavy mediums. They tolerate all levels of sun and tolerate constant cutting back.
The will shoot back from anywhere after a cutback and usually with a lot of new options of growth.

This is another one I'm trying to shohin. They are perfect for shohin/mame, because you can remove a lot of root and they just power on.
The roots were heavily cut back in September.

I realize its not quite yet 01.01.2023, but its easier to post that its 2023, so looking back people can easily distinguish that its a year apart. Its only 1 day before the actual date.
