Sapling
Finally scored some R. Kiusianum from Singing Tree.
They are 2 gallon plants that were planted in straight fir bark mulch so I added a bunch of fir fines to some salvaged Bonsai Jack, shook off the loose mulch from the rootballs and dropped them into big pond baskets for the winter. Will figure out something else next spring after they flower. Planning on using them as stock plants to strike cuttings for bonsai someday maybe.
Between these and a bunch of 'yabu tsubaki' (wild camellia) that's come later, I'll be adding a little bit of Kyushu to Washington.
