I've been doing bonsai for a little over 6 years now. I consider myself just past beginner and treading lightly around novice/intermediate. I collect my own trees and only ever have. I've killed a few along the way will definetley kill more along the way.

I'm not going to be popular for saying it but the new shohin book wasn't worth the hype or the 4 month wait. The thirty bucks would have served me better getting a nice shohin pot and reading any of my other books.

I thinks it's wonderful that Morten Albek got a book deal. And the pictures were really well done. But as far as inspiration goes I could have pulled 5 books off the shelf to find the same stuff rehashed once again.

Perhaps it's just since the Robert Stevens book I expected something fresh and new.

Anyone want to trade a good book for beginners for a nice shohin pot?
