Yep...that's the bug...you definitely caught it!

more like a life style change at this point.

Won't be cutting back but yamadori and nice material is all I go after now, maybe a bigger house with a bigger back yard soon :)

Great looking collection...yamadori as well! Great job on the bench areas.

Thanks! pretty much all on the platform is yamadori!

You will know you have caught the bug when you actually have to create a hidden area that your wife does not know about to hide the stuff she would never understand.

Yea, I still manage to "sneak one in" amongst the others once in a while. The hubby thinks the trees are cool but he is most interested in the pot with the three venus fly traps in it. Its a guy thing.

When I had trees and I moved them my Wife would always ask where is... I could never get away with it but on a bright note she encourages me to be into it. She has an entire room for a good portion of the year to keep Tropicals inside and has been into Bonsai for many years more than me although I used to assist her on occasion. We have different taste but the same basic interest except for landscape. To resolve that I cleared the front at this place for her to "play" and I have been assigned the back for my stuff. All works out pretty well ;)
