Hi All, recently i had to source natural rock slabs for a japanese garden i was landscaping ,my local garden supplyer had a contact that could get rocks sliced up like a loaf of bread ranging in size 30cm up to 2mts great for displaying bonsai.
Thanks John m

The landscaping and the quality of the Bonsai are just amazing. I am jealous and inspired.
Great work.

Your garden and bonsai looks great John! Do you have any problem with the stone slabs heating up and overheating the pots? I used concrete pillars for years and thought they were too hot. Then I shifted to (ugly) welded mesh benches which are unsightly but good for cultivation. They are built into my ugly little bonsai house. I would love to do this and have acquired some sandstone paving slabs but I am concerned about their high thermal mass.

great bonsai there and an absolutly great garden. the sliced rocks give the garden a look that most average," do it your self" home gardens dont have.
Great work mate.
