Julian, congrats on your impending apprenticeship. I live in OC and if you need someone to tend to your trees, let me know. Good luck

@thomas22 Mauro Stemberger is coming to southern CA starting March 26th. If you were serious about taking this tree to the next level, I'd contact Mauro on FB. Good luck

Judy, have you picked out a pot for it yet? Would love to see it

Si, thanks for the recommendations and the drawings. I will consider them and will let you know what comes up. FWIW, if I choose 4 o'clock as the front, the live root will be placed directly at the front. One of my ideas, which is kind of similar to what you suggested, is to lean the tree to...

Thanks for everyone's reply. I will study your responses more and also stare at the tree until something reveals itself I've thought of bunjin style myself, but as you can see, the upper half portion of the tree is rather straight, and wasn't sure it would make a convincing bunjin, but I have...

Greetings, This is a well established collected CA juniper so I though I'd perform an initial styling followed by a repot next spring. However, after looking at the tree off and on for a couple of days, I draw a blank. The issue here is there's not a ton of foliage close to the trunk to pull...

House of Bonsai also provide grafting service, I would call Vickie (the owner) first and confirm -Vince

Thank you! Thanks, Ian, for the photographic tour of the garden. BTW, did you have a chance to visit Japan?

Websites John, A premature welcome to CA, since you mentioned Northern CA and Portland, I have a couple of websites I keep and would like to share with you. There could be others, but this should be an OK start: Central/Northern CA: http://www.bssf.org/guides/vendors/ Portland...

A while ago, I have decided that I will acquire less number of trees, but those that I do acquire are of better qualities and or potential. I have found since then is I spend less time watering/fertilizing and taking care a bunch of trees and more time enjoying the ones that I have in my...

No worries, I paid close to 2K for this one, including shipping costs and insurance. Hopefully I did not start something that I did not mean to by disclosing this info, but wanted to share to help others You may already know that Satsuki demands a bit of premium, and there's the lengthy...

History A bit of background/history of this tree: This tree is approximately 35 years old and was grown from a cutting. 3 years ago, it was imported from Japan. Agreed with Victrinia, Scott is a great guy to deal with, and according to him, he has a few of these Satsuki Azaleas, all are...

Frank, I bought it from Scott Luke at Blue River Bonsai, believe he is based out of Nebraska -Vince
