How many Alain are there? I once knew a guy who was part Vietnamese and Cuban, but had a French name. The name was Alien.

Man, I've been watering everyday for a month now. Soon I'll have to set up shade cloth, then it'll be 2, maybe 3 times a day, who knows? Lol, I hate the Desert.

Yup... New house = need for new summer survival strategies... Been busting my head planning for the inevitable misery that is Vegas from June to September...

 

[milehigh_7]

I convince myself that I hate bonsai every january and february (it helps). And mid summer i go to a quarry or field and just start training and chopping weedy j. virginiana. They grow like grass here, plus maybe one day I'll re-stumble upon one of my old friends and take him/her home.

I do the whole I hate bonsai every August... It helps with the pain of the funeral pyre that I have to build to deal with the dead.

Because you are French

To jest pravda!

Well, there was me...
And then there was my buddy

In fact I was the first surprised when I had an alert for something I didn't do.
It was @AlainK but the forum messed us up.
Normally there is never another Alain (unless another member has French origin) that's why the server let me used my 1st name as a pseudo when I registered, but in France it's almost as original as Mike here

Hey! That was totally uncalled for!

Hey! That was totally uncalled for!

I didn't say it was not nice

Why don't you people like me, booh hoo...

With Sorce on this one! I like your French teaching and curiosity, which is quite educational often too, and your trees even more. Really happy when you comment on my stuff.

The french-speaking part was a joke, excusez moi if it was a bad one. Sometimes I'm the only one laughing at my jokes.
But hey, better than no one laughing, right!

Also, the Doors are awesome.

Japanese White Pine are zone 4 hardy and are more suited to cold climates, both as landscape trees and as bonsai.

But some (most all imports) are grafted onto JBP stock, and you're back to needing to protect like you would a JBP...

 

[CWTurner]

not "Doo-pree" but "Doo-pray".

Ah, the high class arm of the Dupre clan.
Great music that Zydeco.
I don't have the schoolin' that some others do, but I heard that Cajun is a bastardization of Arcadian. The French speaking maritime Canadians moved to warmer climes (probably for the music and food).

Good to know!
I prefer JBP anyway so I'll go after a JBP, this will be my summer quest for this year

Hiya Sorce, Go gee rrah,

just visiting. Busy. We found clay and are testing for Bonsai pots. Cuts the itch to interfere.
Deep red and a dark brown.

Might be building a large flat house.

Got the first star flowers on the Earth Day [ when collected ] Oxy. An Accident.
Next flowers when we want them.
Good Day

I believe that's an off-label use. Your mileage may vary.

I bet the banjo mute could quiet down lots of.....things that annoy one.

Lol.....

I read the label closer and it says......

"Good luck using this on a Cuban chick....
She will bust your motherfuckin lip and keep talking!"

Shame!

Sorce

Chicas in CR must be very similar!

Far from the high class arm. :^ ) The French speaking Acadians didn't move..........they WERE moved...... involuntarily so I've read.

There is no verb excuser supposed root of excusez--
je me demande pardon --I for myself ask pardon
I believe is the way it is said.

"The french-speaking part was a joke, excusez moi if it was a bad one."

No worries. Someone who has no sense of humour, being unable to laugh at himself is just a poor sod.

The only things I know about Cajuns come from watching Deliverence and Swamp People.

Quite a time since my last French class, so my French sucks a bit. Thanks for the rectify.

LOL, thanks for the compliment!

Keep conifers. Slower growing(most)do not need repotting every year or two. Can go hiking, movies, driving, other hobbies. Not so much busy work and aggravation.
