Okies, you have prompted me, time for another round of pruning on mine too, it is still with us and happy, been thinking another cut and regrow was due.

Kath, the lady who inspired me with her fuchsia bonsai on Gardenbuddies, died recently. I believe she was a member here as well, tho I dont think she posted much if at all. Very sorry to hear the news.

Hi Greth,sorry to hear that to. I dont know her but if she has inspired you and others she must have been a good sort.

Hope the link works, these are Kaths trees. She used to visit Australia regularly, missed her by 50km last time, was so hoping she would return!
