Awesome thanksmelbrackstone wrote:I saw Ryan Neil used long strands of wet sphagnum instead of muck in his latest slab planting.... says it doesn't crack like the clay in muck, and does everything else better than muck.

Wow - little ramification? I actually thought the ramification here was pretty good?no idea wrote:wow, little ramification, no drama, plant placed at same angle as so called rock face, leaf size compared to so called tree size, companion plant taller, distance apart with no depth, placed at same height, placed against a wall with no character. Where does your eye take you? To the companion. Wow

Anyway this tree is due for an update, its changed a far amount in the year.
The work done here in this update was done exactly 1 year ago in March 2014. It was done in preparation for the Central Coast bonsai exhibition in which was to be the very next day after it was planted on the stone!
details in the photos....
That’s a great looking bonsai, may I ask what is in your muck and substrate? Do you use a totally different mix for sticking a bonsai to a rock? Total newb here but i’d Like to give it a go one day.
