Hey everyone! Just wanted to share this lovely little Root-over-rock satsuki I received as an early Christmas present from a loved one. It's a Kikuhime variety and was just imported fairly recently! :)

I actually bought one of Harry Harrington's bonsai fundamental books! I need to go on his blog more often, I completely overlooked that he posted some about azaleas. Thanks Darlene!

Hi Adair, Thank you for the great advice! The tree stays outside, as all of my other trees do. It is outside my apartment, which particularly gets good sunlight during the day and lots of shading by 4pm. I do plan on letting it experience the winter here in the city, as it typically doesn't get...

I completely understand. It's hard to constrain myself from getting more esp. when I'm very excited about this particular specie. I'll try to hold off on getting another one and save it for when I have found the niche for it--but no promises ;)

It is super helpful to have vendors guide you to the right direction! I am currently looking into getting another shohin azalea, maybe more so in the lower price range as I want to be able to compare and contrast both azaleas as they progress during my care.

I actually bought this tree from Soh-Ju-En, a satsuki azalea bonsai nursery based in California. This was one of the trees that they weren't able to post on their website yet, as it was newly imported. I never actually saw them post anything on the Bonsai Auctions Facebook page. Regardless, it...

Thanks sorce. Part of the reason why I had to get it was because of the trunk. I just couldn't say no! I believe it has the qualities of a wonderful (moyogi-style) shohin one day.

Hi Eric, Thanks so much for the wonderful advice. I will absolutely keep you guys updated about this beautiful, shohin! I'm planning on repotting it next year around March. I'm making sure to have the materials for repotting (i.e. Kanuma and yamagoke) ready for it when the time comes. As of...

Hi JoeR, What Facebook group is that? I recall joining two actually, one is a bonsai auction group, the other a bonsai sale group. I currently have a Cotoneaster and a Lavender Grewia. My Cotoneaster is about 6 yrs old and my Lavender Grewia is 12. I wanted to join the group specifically to...

Hi Darlene, I would love to own as many animals as you do one day, but unfortunately I live in NYC and my apartment doesn't allow any pets (I had to smuggle my BP in hah). Honestly, I don't think you can have enough animals esp. if you know you have room for them! I'm thinking of getting a...

As a matter of fact, I was searching for a good book about azaleas. Thanks for the book suggestion! I'll definitely look into it :) Hahaa! Seems to me we've got some similarities--Bonsai & BPs! :p

Hey everyone! I'm fairly new to this site and figured I should join considering that I just purchased my third bonsai--but in particular it is my FIRST Satsuki Azalea and I'm going to need all the advice I can get (I still feel like I haven't read enough about azaleas)! It is a Nyohozan (var.)...
