I do. But they’re specimens!

That reminds me, I have a big one over at Plant City I need to do some work on! I’ll be there July 6 teaching a class. I’ll bring it home then.

Is it really big? If so I saw it last week and it was very impressive. Always heard they were difficult in Georgia. The monastery has monster one though.

A little over 2 feet, I suppose. It has stainless steel guy wires.

Any farther south than the Northern Atlanta suburbs, I wouldn’t recommend one, but, say, Sandy Springs and points north, you should be ok.

I really think the key is having the right soil. Until I started using Boon Mix, I couldn’t grow JWP consistently. Mixes based on pine bark keep the soil too wet.

There's a bit about soil (and micronutrients) in a series of articles Julian Adams wrote for International Bonsai. The series was spread over 4 editions/1 year of magazines. I have them somewhere, but I don't remember the year.

Nice find. Pretty sure that would be it. It was in back of the garden over by the greenhouse of starter stock. I would have signed up for the class but I am out next week.

No, that wouldn’t be it. Steve has it in the fenced display garden.
