These are beautiful So small but so nicely styled and cared for. Much appreciated Dave I love the maple and the privet. Around about how old would these lovely trees be? Many thanks for showing. Much appreciated
Regards Marleeney

Hi everyone
the first maple was from seed in 1989 and credit for it early growth goes to Lambert Wellington.
The carved front Privet & the 30cm Olive were collected and styled by me in 1998 and at a guess were 10-15 years when collected, all others were either seedling or young nursery stock
cheers
Dave

A lovely display of little bonsai Dave!
I'd love to see the Maples in colour so please follow up with some Autumn shots too.
The carved trunk Privet is by far my favorite. Do you have any progression shots of it?
How do you keep your mini's health during the hotter months? Have you seen
Pup's Mame, Shito and Shohin post? He has a nice collection also and a great bench too!
Regards,
Steven

Hi Steven,
Morning sun position and water once a day, just like all my trees.
Mate sold that little Privet to a Sydney nursery, only a 2001 shot of that privet
cheers
