A few maples are starting to turn.

Could you comment about your maples in wooden boxes on the last picture? I guess you are using clip and growth method? Will it be multi trunk or single?when will you cut? Will you cut to a branch and wait for more buts down or cut down to no visible buts?

Drift,

All of those maples are different with the exception that none are trunk-chopped.

Now with the spirit of the thread you owe us 2 pics!

And yes, maples do in fact thrive in SF. Cool nights, only a handful of low 90’s, 30% shade cloth, wind breaks and 12hr shifts of watering duties.

Not sure if I posted these. Gives an idea of how small a regular garden is in Taiwan. "My" garden with the benches is actually 2 gardens. The house we rent's garden and the neighbors who use the house as a holiday home. I keep it tidy and they let me use it.

Sweet setups and gardens! Glad many of you keep contributing to this thread. Tiny or huge, in progress or finished... don't matter. Just share your bonsai paradise.

Here are a few October pics.

What the garden looks like after 4-5 weeks of being busy and vacation time away from home with subtropical island rain and sunshine. Caught a decent sized snake not long after clearing up. Luckily non-venomous.
