I like @bonhe 's idea of a single thread for the collecting photos and things I'm doing bonsai wise that don't deserve separate threads. It will also make it easier to find just one thread rather than one for each of dozens of trees.
First up is a new acquisition, from Singing Tree Nursery, Hinoki 'Hage' Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Hage'.
This cultivar is very slow growing, as slow as the 'Nana' form. It was a little expensive for its small size, but given their slow growth rate I did not expect a large tree for the price. I put it in a shallow wide pot, mostly because it was laying around, I want the tree to bulk up, so the plan is to leave it in that pot for several years.
