What’s up Bnutters?

So, I decided to start a blog. You can check it out at peacelovebonsai.com

Although I don’t consider myself a bonsai expert of any kind, I do love me some bonsai! My plan is to talk about all things bonsai...

Book reviews, product reviews, some tree talk, some pot talk, and just about anything else I can think of.

I hope you’ll check it out. And I’m always open to feedback!

Thanks!

Mike Mills of 17th Street BBQ in Murphysboro wrote a book, "Peace Love & BBQ", is that where you borrowed the idea for the title? Its a good title. And if you are even down south, do hit up 17th Street BBQ, they have great BBQ.

Nice blog, I like the start you have made.

I can’t remember where, but I think it was on bnut that I saw a discussion about the deadwood on American Bonsai. The argument was that bonsai in the US has too much deadwood, or that the deadwood is not realistic. I recently took a trip to the Utah/NV area and man, the junipers out there are rad! And chalk full of deadwood!!

I thought it was a great interview. He came across as very down to earth, more man than myth. It's a tribute to your interviewing skills, good questions led to interesting answers.

This week, an interview with the great Pauline Muth. Check it out, if you'd like. Some interesting discussions about bonsai societies and conventions and whether they still have a place like they once did.. Also, some discussion of women in bonsai. I hope you enjoy!
