Is this a bouganvillea, Yadibrar? I think it is looking good, but I can't do virtuals. Sorry.

hello frnds,
this is wt i m thinking abt it....any suggestions?????

after five years it may look like.............

I like your plan Yadibrar, keeping the branches on the right a little shorter and allowing free growth and extra length on the left. What I have seen in India most household pots are filled with very fine compact sand which is not the best for bonsai. Do you have access to better quality soil? If not you could mix the soil with bark, crushed brick, charcoal or gravel to allow the pot to drain and the roots to grow freely.

Nice Plan Yadi:-)

to do Virtuals, I use the GIMP. http://www.gimp.org/

does almost the same as Photoshop. but free

hi mate this could be a really nice tree, i think it is a little tall for the trunk though, my virt uses the first right hand branch, could layer the top off.

thanks Gerard ,Kcpoole and Jamie.....
i like your idea and virt jamie... i m thinking abt it...till now i hadn't done any work on plant..thanks for your idea..

ya Gerard u r right ,in india special soils for bonsai r not available,especially in my region....so i uses grit(crushed marble),gravel(sand),soil and some organic decompose to make my own mix...i have used Vermiculite(inorganic soil) in some plants also...

and thanks Kcpoole, i downloaded that ....
