Howzit All,

I got this Bougie from a friend who works as a groundskeeper at Maui Airport. I had just potted it up into a Tokoname bonsai pot. I would like to hear any suggestions you all might have on it. Much Mahalo. :D

Hey Tim nice pot mate , I think what needs to happen at this stage tim is plenty of wiring, before they become too brittle. Tim do you have a virt on this one ,could be a nice boug ? Something else to consider is would this boug look better is a glazed pot, to highlight it`s beautiful flowers. ;) Cheers Rod......

Howzit Rod,

Sorry, I don't have a virt on this one. You did one on my other bougie. If you could, I'd be happy if you did one so I have an idea to follow. Right now I'm just following what the bougie is doing. I was thinking about a glazed pot but I thought it would take away from the bracts. Your thoughts on this Sir. :)

I will do one for you Tim. I see your point about the flowers, it could work both ways . It is a great pot and I dont think it will take away from the flowers ;) Cheers Rod....
