Patience is an Art
Seedling
Hi all! I’m new to this forum, and to Bonsai (although I have been a gardener for 40 years). I thought I knew a little about Bonsai, but now I’m convinced I know absolutely nothing! I’m going to be content to quietly follow y’all for quite awhile!
Here is a Pieris and an Azalea- both approx 20 years old. Any potential as a Bonsai? I am just showing the base - they are very healthy bushes in spite of having just been “thrown into the woods” years ago when they were divided from the main bush. If they have any potential I was thinking of pruning them back a bit right where they are and revisit in the Spring. Thoughts? TIA!
