Last tree of the year, 2019 edition

[Carol 83]

I wasn't planning on getting anything new this late in the year, but when @Zach Smith asks if you're interested in one of his trees, who would say no? This one is headed my way tomorrow. Thanks Zach! Feel free to share your last tree of the year here.

 

[Zach Smith]

Thank you, Carol. I'll miss this Bougie.

This jap maple was my last one acquired, back in August.

From Wigert’s View attachment 266561

I have quite a few things from Wigert's, I've been pleased with everything. Pretty pot.

Had go to Lowes today to fix the toilet...50% of shrubs and trees. There was a Mugo that caught my eye but I walked away. So my latest is a satsuki I got a few weeks ago.

I'm going down to NC to spend x-mas with the in-laws and plan to make a detour by Nature's way nursery on the way back. There's a good chance my last tree of the year will be on the last week of the year.

Hm.. In november we have a field day again with my club. I might pick up a tree then. Thinking a new Berberis maybe, to sell on in a year or two.

Club sale next week! There is hope!

Wasn't planning on it but have 3 coming from Wigert's later in the week. I'll post some pictures the end of the week.
Besides, the year hasn't ended yet so who knows.

You'd have to ask @Zach Smith, but on his website he mentions using Chuck Iker pots alot. Not sure if this is one of his or not.

Wasn't planning on it but

That happens to me alot Wigert's is great, I have some nice material from them. If you're looking for something in particular, Andrea is great about sending pictures of things she thinks you may be interested in also. No, the year hasn't ended, but we have had a couple frosts and it will be getting risky to ship here. Not to mention that everything is inside and the inn is full.

That's a Byron Myrick pot.

Thanks for the tip Carol. They sure are easy to work with and their combined shipping is very affordable.

This little triple trunk Cotoneaster from nursery stock, which even after a short period of time has pushed a ton of growth and continues to grow.

I have this one inbound.
I thought the bougie I dug a couple of weeks back would be my last but I was browsing the recently added stuff and this stuck out like a sore thumb. It's the first time I have come across an Aussie native from a reputable bonsai dealer over here and had it in the basket and check'd out as quick as I could. lol

I did grab a Larix and Liquidamber stick in pot each to grow out as well because clearly I haven't killed enough deciduous trees yet.

Years not over yet.

I have trouble going for more than a couple weeks without stumbling upon another candidate. Trimmed two trees last week and removed two suckers that found their way into pots. I'm afraid to look at the ground.

Hokotusei satsuki, imported, came in to my possession a couple weeks ago. Let’s just say it’s the last one this year I’ll admit to. It came from North American Satsuki Bonsai Center, which used to be the old El Dorado Bonsai. New owner is a really nice guy.
