AusBonsai

These are a few pictures of where i live, which is one rung down the ladder from heaven. Which makes me a very lucky fellow. I hope you enjoy my introduction.

Awesome BodhiDharma! Love it.

Are visitors welcome?

Sure beats one rung up from the other place.

Thank you for this Bohdi I enjoyed the stroll it helped me contemplate, what I have to confront in the coming day's.

Again thank you Pup

You are more than welcome Teejay

What a beautiful place you have, Bodhi! Really inspiring. My wife and I are hoping to buy a house mid next year, after which we'll be doing up the back yard and making an area for my Bonsai, so I'll keep this thread bookmarked for reference

Thanks for sharing!

...after which we'll be doing up the back yard and making an area for my Bonsai

I did the same thing but the "area for bonsai" just keeps expanding. Now I have several bonsai areas all over the yard.

It's been gradual enough to not cause a stir so far though.

Fabulous! I think I dreamt about this place before How do manage your watering Bodhi?

Thanks for posting that up Bodhi. I've been having a fairly stressful week with work, and looking at your place has made my day much more bearable =)
Made me feel a little relaxed. Your place is fantastic
^_^

Hi Kvan64, Each and every one is lovingly( mostly anyway) by hand every day. We are on tank water and irrigating is not water wise enough.

you have no idea the levels of jealousy we all are on Bodhi!

What i would give to have a collection like that.

You have a beautiful and wonderful collection!

More Pics i vote!

Each and every tree? front, back and sides too much to ask?

Nathan & Jordy thanks very much, this is my face all the time Jordy your wish is my command

Looks like you have the run of the yard Bodi and a handy studio to boot. Great setup. The sprawling garden is how it is meant to be done very nice.
That must take a while to water though. I look forward to the day I can stretch my collection out to display better but at the moment I try to keep all mine in a less sprawling fashion to make watering easier.
Mine is far from perfect and congested though.
The mother in law gets a face of horror when I mention watering 3 times a day. I gather this is from her having one of the most annoying gardens to water always finding another area that needs watering. I would rather water mine three times a day than hers once a fortnight.

I think it might take me 20 mins to water everything at the moment maybe 10 mins on light watering days. I would be interested how long it takes to water this setup? I guess it comes down to habit how you like to do it. My mate pol has largish rocks all over his soil as a mulch to keep the soil cooler and I asked him how do you know when they are dry. He shrugs and says I just Know?

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love your work

i would love to stroll in your garden, i'd be finding spots to zen out all over the place

do you get any bird or any other animal problems where you're at i just don't recall seeing any "can't come in here animals" netting...

Hey Aaron, I dont get to messed up by animals and birds. I get the odd broken branch from a bird and a bit of chewing by a bush rat but because i dont hassle them much they reciprocate. The odd snake catches me off guard sometimes though.
