AusBonsai

My little Camellia is just as excited as me for such a big week of Bonsai coming up*.
Trees DO have emotions and even though I have been lazy and neglected to do the styling I should have she has put on a show.

*Koji Hiramatsu in town for BBTH and The School Of Bonsai as well as other events.

Hi Ric, nice little tree. Is this from an air layer

Hi no idea,

No it is from a root graft -Technique where you dig up some interesting old roots from an old garden tree and graft a variety that is good for bonsai on that.
That idea was told to me by Len Webber many years ago and I have done it quite a bit with varying success.
If you can find interesting gnarly roots it can be a speedy result.
Good luck

Thanks Ric I'll look it up, sounds interesting. Thanks again
