A shohin master and a Bassmaster!
Did any of those come from Lake Casitas?

Do you have a link to workshops at your garden or are they all hosted through local clubs? I may have to join Santa Anita just so I can come visit your awesome trees!

Looks like a real fun time! Every new set of photos you share of your garden leaves me with my jaw on the floor! So many amazing trees, and such an organized garden. Thank you for continuing to share.

Thank you Peter! That tamarisk is such a surprise!

Indeed! Almost missed that one!

Now of course I'll be looking at the tamarisk in our yard to see if there are any branches that could be layered
