    Does ANYONE really like or appreciate the bitchiness on this site?

    Poor tree

    Fires in California

    I feel you guys pain. Its winter here in Aus and we already have bush fires raging, last week we nearly had to be evacuated because a big one (burned 1700 hectares) was within a couple miles of my home, the only reason no homes were lost was because of the absolute legends in the helicopters...

    Did I go over over the top from winterizing.

    pffft forget all that 'wintering' nonsense, just move to Australia and you'll never have to deal with winter again. Its winter here at the moment and today we should hit around 70f in the middle of the day, it is sensational :)

    Apprenticeship

    What's causing this??

    how long have you had the juniper?? it may not be a disease.... it may be a variegated chinese juniper just doing what it does, turning yellow. id never seen one until about six months ago when I was at my local bonsai nursery and noticed a juniper with yellow patches, I asked Leong what...

    salad drainer as training pot?

    I do the same. I fill my colander with diatomite, then stick the whole thing in the ground and just lift it once a year to keep the roots in check. I find it is a good compromise between the increased growth you get from ground growing stock, and the convenience of growing in pots
