sharing progress pictures of collected bougainvillea; both with interesting trunk movement and the potential to develop into nice trees.

best wishes to all for a safe holiday season

The ramification on the first one already is something! But the last...looks to be a pretty spectacular Bunjin in the making! What are your intentions with that one?

for the red, need to pay more attention to the twigging. some too thick. have to prune, wire, to create more ramified and organized top. for the purple, grow, prune, wire, to create a small ramified compact top to compliment the nice trunk line. going for bunjin-ji style.

best wishes, sam
