Only related to bonsai because I spent the last of my yearly bonsai budget getting this little fur-ball for the wife . . .
See you in 2024!

Be careful!
They're notorious for engaging in unscheduled pruning and repotting.
Totally worth it in the long run.

Bought some bench tops to increase the height of my short benches to prevent my 4 legged pruners from pruning. Should be here in a couple of weeks.
And a couple of new plastic chairs for the deck when I want to do work on my trees out there. Lastly 2 plastic Adirondack chairs when I want to sit out there and relax with my mini trees

My hope is that her Parson Russell Terrier genes will kick in at some point and she’ll be too busy chasing off rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, mice, and voles to find the time to help with the pruning.

After looking for years I found a blue atlas that had some great characteristics and a decent price.
All I did was lip the top after purchase.

Nice I always look at them too. Have yet to find one worth buying

Yeah, I’m always looking at them. But I seem to always run into are these things. Too expensive for what you’re getting. No taper and or reverse taper. No movement in the first portion of the trunk. Or it is very poorly grafted.

Out goes the dingo, in comes the bobcat. After using the mini skidsteer for a couple of weeks, decided I need abit more capability for the garden beyond just moving trees.

Went to the hardware store to get some stuff to bring that outlet on my back porch up to code (since the property manager won't 
) and couldn't help getting another gardenia.
The ones I have didn't do so hot over winter.

I'm very intrigued and interested in bonsai pots, also very old ones, so I invested in this book, I will probably regret it sooner or later 
I wonder why? Mine grew well and bloomed most of the winter. They aren't even directly under lights, they're too big.

Don't know.They never did quite come back from their issues of last summer, so they went into winter weak, and I still have some soil issues to work out. Definitely needs to be richer and more acidic unless I want to fertilize every single day,
Lost 4 inextricably. The only thing they had in common was I thought they might be a little wet, so I gave them a day to dry out, and then
They didn't even dry out much.Did get a couple sickly blossoms, then I started pinching the buds off so the plants could save strength. Picked up some acid slow release granules, and hopefully that will help too.
Mine are just in regular Miracle-Gro potting soil because they are more patio trees. I use Leo's acid fertilizer maybe once a month. Hope your new one thrives for you!
