Re: satsuki "kimpai"
Happy birthday!
Look forward to seeing how this one goes.
Keep me posted on the detail as I have no idea how to work with Azaleas.
They just confuse me.
Mine are just growing until I figure them out!

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Re: satsuki "kimpai"
Hi mate,
That's a really unusual flower - I like it
I presume it was the "little fella" which died, that's a pity. Do you still pot them in pure Kanuma?
Regards
Steve
