  • Hi Leo, I was snooping around on some of your comments on the topic of Vietnamese bonsai Hon non bo, Im very interested In this topic, you say it was developed independently. I see you are in the Midwest and are going to be attending the Midwest bonsai show. If you are I would love to talk about this in person if not this is fine.


    Thank you
    I didn't want to bump it since it was a post from a decade ago, but I'm really happy you posted a picture of your 'Not Minerva' flowers! I don't think there are any others after searching google and it was instrumental in pulling the trigger on starting a project with some.
    Hi Leo,
    I read your message about the Milwaukee club initiative to develop a learning curriculum for folks new to bonsai. Being a recently retired environmental science teacher and curriculum developer/reviewer, and new bonsai guy, I‘d like to offer whatever services I can to assist from the Seattle area. Cheers js sends

    Thanks for the offer. I personally am not on the committee, but I will pass along your offer. The committee is currently on the May MABA/ABS/ 50th Anniversary Annual Exhibit Celebration. After the show is over, the committee will meet. I will keep you in mind.
    Hey Leo, I posted a reply to you, but not sure where. I am just getting aquainted with this site. People on this site have told me to contact you regarding wintering, and other stuff, mostly pines. Don't know where exactly you are located.
    I am in Harvard, IL. We must be reasonably close. Just thought if you had time and inclination we could get together and commiserate about these little trees.
    Leo, being an expert in Blueberries, the wife and I were thinking of getting a bush for the yard.

    What do you recommend as an easier cultivar to grow here in 7a-7b? What is the best time to plant? What kind of maintenance to keep the bush happy as not only a producing bush, but also to look nice in the landscape?
    Hi Leo, Thank you for you input on the fungicide. Do you use the granular form or the liquid form? Your application protocol sound like you use the liquid form. I thought the liquid form was only a foliar spray. I was wanting to order some but do not know which type to get for bonsai culture. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.
    hey, thanks for your guide post there. I am actually a transplant from Illinois, born in Cook COunty then lived in Toluca till 16 yrs old. Long suffering Cubs fan hoping the post season goes a bit longer for them tonight. :)
