Bonsai Journal 07Aug18: Update on my Blue Jacaranda Forest

When I last updated about my Jacaranda forest, which was about 2 months ago (wow, time really flew), the bonsais were merely seedlings. One of the 8 that had germinated had grown its first set of leaves after the cotyledons appeared.

As you can see above, only four of the eight that germinated made it and are going very strong. Three of them have their second set of leaves while the largest has three. And now with winter busy ending and spring fast approaching, I expected to see maximum growth over the next few weeks.

I cannot wait until these mature and I get my first leaves, possibly only by their second season. How exciting.

For you that do not know, this is what a mature Blue Jacaranda bonsai looks like:
