Late Flowering Bottle Brush

Post by Watto »

This tree is moving in the right direction even though it is still very young in bonsai terms. The flowers are a bit late this year, but still a pleasure when they come out. I am still unsure of the particular variety and I need a new pot, but besides those two things I am very happy with the progress. Hopefully in the future it will flower all over at the same time.

Looks like it has some nice fine foliage and compact flowers. Thought of taking cuttings?

Matlea - I'm not one for taking many cuttings. I have plenty of stock at my place anyway but thanks for the thought.
