Don't let the gigantic numbers fool you, most of these are very small trees.<br /> Many in 4" pots are less than 8" tall. The lilac trunks above are about 4" tall,smaller than the (opportunistic pink wild Shamrock weed) Oxalis.<br /><br /> The tallest white spruce showing in the dark blue pot is perhaps 36" high. The 'bigger trees' in the groupings are only 12-16" high. <br />The shelves are simple rough planks supported by large log sections, tables or loose brick columns for convenience --so they can be moved or redesigned as required --basic, inexpensive stuff that can be scrounged almost anywhere. <br />You'll find out, it's a great hobby. It grows on 'ya!

You can actually design a tree if you do the right things at the right time. There is nothing quite like working with bonsai, it takes dedication, patience and creativity. Once you start you will have bonsai for life. I think it's a good thing, we've been playing with indigenous species for over 15 years. I hope you enjoy it, we will have more posts on different aspects of bonsai. Some interesting stuff coming up! Thanks again, ChristyB !Raymond Alexander Kukkeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01347971987435644221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5599994070177946721.post-90323475992827433752012-01-19T20:00:42.456-05:002012-01-19T20:00:42.456-05:00I want to sit at the desk and learn about bonsai f...I want to sit at the desk and learn about bonsai from you!
