I am pretty sure this is a Kunzea ericifolia that I have had for a couple of years and this year it has flowered quite well. After it is finished with its display I will give it a good trim and shaping to set its path for next year. It will be a Shohin that I hope will be part of my planned seven point Australian native shohin display. It has flowered across the whole plant, and that is pleasing.

Kunzea are a fantastic bonsai species!

Pretty in bloom!

Are you planning on making your seven point display work for different seasons? I can't even imagine trying to line everything up so it's at its best for a particular date....think my head is going to explode!

Really looking forward to seeing the results when you've got it ready to display.

Very nice tree Watto, I found one in my backyard earlier this year, growing it in a seed tray at the moment, maybe time to have a look at it. Do they shoot back after hard pruning? It has sent out a few shoots lower down recently cheers Tim

Beautiful tree Watto ,fantastic flowers, well done. Did you collect this one or nursery stock ? Cheers John

That's an absolute cracker Watto! Nice work mate

This is nursery stock and I bought it as it had a bit of trunk movement. I haven't cut back below some foliage so I don't really know if it would shoot back on old wood - yet. A good trim after the flowers have finished should be an indicator.
I will be happy to have the seven point display at any time of the year Mel and I have a few shohin that I am working on to enable that to happen.
