BEND ME TWIST ME
THE JOURNEY OF 200 DESERT ASH
15/07/07
3 in 1
Now to plant it into a quarter size polystyrene box very careful not to let the roots get all over the place. A small mound in the centre then push the tree into it help’s keep things horizontal, bury well water well, sweet. I have also placed several flat rocks around the tree so that the roots won’t get disturbed by wind and birds. It now measures 90 mm around the base. I’m betting this time next year this baby will get up around the 150mm minimum, let’s wait and see. The next word on 3 in 1 will be an update photo when it pushes foliage in spring.
Oh by the way, I would like to also mention that growing your own bonsai from scratch is more than just about the ego. It is about an adventure and journey that has many lessons to learn, about life as well as bonsai.
