CR, we had looked into this a while back. See if you can find out what the "old timers" used for bonsai soil. As I recall, you said it just might be "whatever works".

How are you finding the old country?

 

[Joe Dupre']

Bald Cypress! Feels like home.

Just to be clear, I think a few of these are vines trained in a group to become bonsai... Are my eyes deceiving me on this? Either way I apparently need to take a global trip to see fantastic specimen like these
