Another colossus of the 20th century passes into folklore,there were others but his genius was truly outstanding. Rest easy Mikhail.

In the Japan of old where walled compounds were the norm and much effort was put into keeping spies,assassins,and gifts away I was wondering if the secrets of Bonsai were jealously guarded from prying eyes and if so did wealthy plantsmen employ artistic spies to not only make maps but also to...

Ison? My data suggests the hard rock geology free of lighter elements converted to a plasma with impetus and is even now coalescing into a ball of rock incorporating jettisoned solar material before returning to the alien civilisation that launched it.

I was watching the late evening news after a hard day being distracted by the farce that milled about me at work and for some reason an early photograph of a bearded American suffering from acromegaly caused some of your extant though repudiated by the constitution presidents to wax lyrical...

I was reading how the North American Space Agencies automobiles on the Martian surface will regail us with images of Comet Ison as it roars through the jurisdiction of the inner planets. Visible through the atmosphere of Mars but it would not be visible from the 'Moon'. Hmm,makes ya think.

Pines on the mountain deeply riven the earth exhales

I'm thinking of this imaginary scene,this was after reading about the Abomination of Desolation. A Christian Bonsai diorama with little mudmen and their digging utensils running for the hills. The American Standard version reads"But when ye see the abomination of desolation standing where he...

They are going on about hurricane force winds again on the television,quite excited about it they were,i hope you are all well enough.

Rhinestones?

On TV this evening,your leaders half brother from the shanty town near Nairobi. George is a man of few words. There is a play about his life as an armed robber,he seems to have been less succesful than his US born bro. What a difference geography can sometimes make.

Is it the done thing? The last time i wore an apron was woodwork in high school and then it served no purpose other than it was required as a uniform to be bought with the tie and blazer. Actually i never had a blazer as jumpers were specified. Would wearing the apron bring composure to...

For me this spring i am most looking forward to Horse Chestnut development,the aim being to eventually represent a grouping of pollarded conker trees in cultivation for winter viewing. I admire the handsome foliage even skeletonized in late August,i enjoy the sturdiness and in particular the...

7-Eleven,not the Chimichanga but the large microwaveable Cheesebuger and the self serve Slurpee in several flavours. Now those were good times.

Candles lengthening,becoming fluffy. The mysteries of mycellium in their pots. Best candles this year were Sylvestris 'Watereri',very nice indeed. Grown out front in an oriental tradition so as to draw the eye and bemuse the passers-by.

What's the most you ever spent on shears for your roots?:o Maybe you have a preference for a particular brand and can elucidate exactly why no others are comparable. Perhaps you use some sort of laser guided trimmer,tell me about your love of that tool too. I look forward to...

I was wondering about Bonsai from nature,specifically Mormon Tea and other Ephedra species. The Ephedra Sinica i have growing for many years have no trunk whatsoever and yet i see Viridis,possibly Nevadensis,have a thickened woody stem on the range. I wonder how long it takes them to grow...

Today i noticed strange white flecks on the needles of seedlings sown outdoors in the autumn of 2008. At first i thought bird droppings were responsible but the slight stickiness of the encrustations persuaded me otherwise. Some slight excitement there as i had not expected this to occur at...

I rarely see a mention of your yard trees grown in cloud formations,why could this be? Even rarer are cloud tree masters,is it not sexy enough to attract international pupils to the Pacific highlands and islands. I suspect this pastime generates less devotees as the results simply are too...

Whilst out seeking well rotted manure and looking at comical Ducklings i spied some recent additions to the Conifer section of the Garden Center. At first my eye was drawn to some interesting droopy leafed pines who's name i just knew i would never remember but then i saw these hansomely...
