Hollow Creek I am a very satisfied customer with this company. I recently purchased a pot and when I got it the pot was broken. I called Hollow Creek and told them about it and they promptly sent a refund check and I got another pot in good condition. I have bought different things from them...

Just to let anyone out there who might be interested know I have succesfully tranplanted all of my ponytail babies and all of them are looking good so far best of luck to anyone who attempts this it was not as difficult as I thaught it would be.

I have a old ponytail palm that was given to me one Christmas several years ago I have it in a large type ceramic pot I noticed today it has 3 shoots coming up at the outer edge of the tree. What I am wondering is how can I make new trees out of these three I dont know if there is a way or not I...

I really like this tree looks like hackberry can make a nice bonsai I was just wondering what is the age of the tree?

Hackberry bonsai All I know about the tree is that it is a common type of tree here in ky. the large types have a grey bark with wart like places all over it has berries in fall they grow to be tall and have small leaves.

Today I collected a young common hackberry tree and I was just wondering if anyone who has tried this type of tree for bonsai could give me a few pointers about it. I would have left it alone but this was a rescue effort as the person I got it from was cutting all of the trees around a next...

I live in south central ky. for now. I may be moving futher north next year. I really like the photos of all of the trees.

As always I thank you all for your suggestions. I have been thinking alot about it and I think I will decide on the Mugo pine I never thought about the Virginia pine I wish I lived where I could get one grown by nature but I dont I wonder where I might buy one ? If anybody knows plese give me a...

I like pine trees they rank as one of my favorite all around trees. Someday I hope to purchase one for bonsai. The question I have is what is the general opinion of which of these two makes the best bonsai and which one is the easiest to grow and care for Mugo pine or Japanese Black pine? I have...

Its good to know someone would be willing to grow out the tree for me I dont think you would want it though its so little it might make a decent bonsai in 10 years or so.

I live in south central ky.I have just orderd some double screened soil to place the plant in.Thank you for your response.

I just received my new plant and it is not any bigger than a pencil so I am kind of dissapointed with what I got thats what I get from ordering from a company I never dealt with before oh well if it lives it will make a nice tree someday maybe my daughters first bonsai project.

I was just wondering if it would be possible to get one of your pots in a different size I really like the 29b and 19c I have a satsuki I am going to repot and out of all the pots I have looked at on different sites I like these two the best of all.

I will wait until after bloom time to repot I think I will still limit the blooms I want the trees to have the least amount of stress I want to use a different kind of soil I found on a site that I have had luck with before . Thanks for all of the advice bonsai nut people are the best happy...

I have another question I have been thinking about what time of the year would be best to prune the roots of azaleas ? I wonder if the middle of march would be o.k. it just seems to me it might be less stressful on the tree to do the pruning before it is peak growth cycle

I never thaught of the stirofoam it is a great idea. I will see if I can locate a similar thing for my plants. Thank you all for the help ,

I live in south cenral ky. I have the two trees in a kanuma soil mix with other soil bought from brussels bonsai. The pots are 15inch by around 4 inches deep. I am sorry but at the present time I dont have a way of getting photos.

I have read and seen different oppinions on overwintering satsuki azaleas so many different opinions I have my two currently on a coverd porch it has been cold here for a few nights so I put both of them closer to the house where the north wind cant get to them I have also placed two glass...

I thank you both for your advice. I think I will just leave it alone until spring gets here and then put it in the ground with some good soil around it. It means alot to me when someone takes time to give advice to me.

I have just ordered a new bougaivillea plant that I want to train as bonsai. The questions I have are first of all what kind of soil best suits this plant? The second thing what is a good sealer for the branches I will be trimming and what is the best time of year to prune to get the shape I...
