Actually 6 hours, not too bad considering.
I did not put this in the capsule, you'll just have to put up with seeing it between now and then.
Time wiring trees--and doing stuff, is flat mind-bending sometimes. It is no wonder most amateur American bonzo are unkempt. I often wonder about these hours--as an individual, are they wasted, are they developmental to me somehow--other than meditatively? My Norbilly friend reminds me he is leading a contemplative life and bonsai is a component of it--like an exercise of grace revealing yet more grace, but then he is retired with a pension and I doubt I ever will be.
I find it mind freeing. To delve into the structure and try to bring something out of it is so absorbing that all else goes away.
Ahh yes, this is the meditative element-- do you feel there is more beyond this?
If you let there be, I think so. What it is I couldn't say, but I know it's deeper than just loosing yourself for the moment.
This is one of my most favorite tridents, so muscular and natural. Probably why I don't have any yet, I want to find the right one.
You should get one and learn the species and how it grows in your climate before you get a good one... There are tons of them out there, and it should do well for you.
I had one but it was just a little cutting, ended up selling it this winter when I needed some money
. At least it was just in the grow out stage, I want to look for one with a decent trunk but not super expensive (my life
).
They do fade to the back, but I'll bet I can wire something out this way. Never actually thought about doing that. Thanks M!Looking great Judy! YIKES what a BEAST!
I'd love to see a branch or two from the lower left cluster coming towards us. Looks like all are facing away or just the photo?
. One of my favorite tridents for sure!!
I'm rarely daunted by anything, I've been a woman in a man's industry, so not much ruffles me, certainly not trees! I have very much enjoyed this tree and working on it, it sure has a lot of doing to do when it needs done.
Say it ain't so, Judy!!!I'm rarely daunted by anything, I've been a woman in a man's industry, so not much ruffles me, certainly not trees! I have very much enjoyed this tree and working on it, it sure has a lot of doing to do when it needs done.
I do feel like moving away from these super huge trees though, and am working my collection back to medium sized things bits at a time. I still have 3 very large ones, that will be hard to part with, this being one of them. Thanks for reading this long thread!
