RE: #BonsaiNews: Some of the latest projects I'm working on (It has been a while)

in #bonsai6 years ago

Lots of fun photos from the tour at the end. I like seeing what people can make out of temporary rock pieces. It can be as fun and artistic as building with lego blocks.

That mud rock piece looks really cool. It almost looks volcanic or like coral ocean rock with all the pieces sticking out and the crevice holes.

Gotta keep the Hangman's Delight around for Halloween. No such thing as a spooky graveyard without some dead trees in it.

Sort:  

Yeah it was an amazing trip. Drove like 200kms just to get there but really worth it. Got so many new ideas and inspiration from the trip. I had no idea that coral tree leafs form thorns on some of the leafs so that is something I'd like to see in one of my bonsai someday. I have no idea just what exactly is mixed into that mud rock altogether but it definitely looks amazing - I tried washing off a bit of the muck from it to get through to the more 'visual' part but didn't want to get rid of too much of it. Hangman's Delight isn't going anywhere at all. Gonna keep him and maybe graft one of the Jacaranda trees onto him. PS. what I failed to include in the post is that (after nine months) my Juniper communis seeds have sprouted. Feels like a lifetime ago that I started germinating them. The Chinese Dogwood have rotted unfortunately so that is a bot of a loss but nothing is stopping me from trying again. I thought of getting a maple in but they don't do well in my part of the world - a real pity since they looks so great. Thanks for stopping by.
