Love the tree and pot combo! The crystals on the pot look nice

Just repotted a nana that my 3 year son and I started last season together. Procumbens Nana in a production Chinese drum pot... for now!

Long way to go but I’m happy with the progress.

Fabulous bonsai pot selection. Colors and texture. Totally an excellent choice!

Early Spring Shohin composition. 2 persimmons stacked (Shuho over Gekkou pots), and a Chojubai (Byron Myrick pot) outside.

Excellent! Could replace the fat hanging branch with a new thin one from above. Or...hide it with more leaves?

welcome to the Dark Side, Arjun! Careful... it can keep you up late at night trying to make sense of the goings-on around here!

oh! Now I have to post a tree! Ok, how about this one:




Hmm... did I place the accent beer on the correct side?

Yes, clearly the beer accent is on the wrong side, as the flow of the tree moves to the left. Allow me to illustrate the correct placement...


Perhaps a different accent might be appropriate for the ABS spring show in two weeks...

I think this one will be shohin.

 

[SniffingKrylon]

Not the greatest tree but I like it.

Would’ve gone with a model with an exhalation valve, but 3M is always a nice choice with or without. I wear glasses so it’s a real issue here..

Haha thanks for the heads up Adair! Bonsai Nut > Reality Tv...haha jk
So here is a Tree for which I didn’t have the correct mica / grow pot. So I decided to put this trident maple in a Martin Englert pot. It’s like buying your 5 yr old Gucci shoes.

A red chojubai I acquired recentlyis just starting to bud out for spring. Considering an air layer in the near future to make it even more compact

 

[SniffingKrylon]

New tree today thanks to a friend. My first willow leaf ficus.

 

[misfit11]

My Olive. Did some work cleaning up the rotted wood and applying wood hardener today. I think this is going to be the new front.

New shoes... Wajaku!


Boston ivy in a Sam Miller pot... love the yellow!
