I didn't mean it, i love the weather, honestly. it's lovely and sunny and warm and oh no. Now i've opened my big mouth and jinxed it. We're not going to get this hot summer we've been promised...

lol Al, I'm really lucky to have two bonsai masters to show me how to push trees in this climate...1 years growth here is worth 3-4 years in Britain...It's a lot of fun working here with anything green.

Hi Jorge...I knew a Jorge once....Met him in Israel...crazy Basque guy...Wonder what he's up to now?
Anyway this forest was all done by "Lingan technique"... or clip and grow and never wired...
Tamarinds have a very special place in my heart as they close their leaves at night as if going to sleep...
The whole forest looks amazing by torch light at 3.00am when I can't usually sleep...
I often find myself walking round the nursery with the torch...
Anyway happy growing folks
