bonsai.
Hey bonnelee... I'm from Australia and Im getting into bonzai, though I know I wont be much help. Any way I started bonsai about 3-4 months ago and I'm eager to get more trees and to get organised. I've only got three trees at the moment. I am 13, I live in Aus,vic,stawell. Last autumn I started out in the garden with vegies but I have abandoned it now because its impossible in this heat! Anyway I figure bonsai is a bit of greenery in this dusty place. My Unkle and Aunty do bonsai and my other unkle has many native plants which I can use so im gonna get into natives a bit. Though im thirteen I still no a bit so my email is:

Hey everyone,
My name's Peter and I'm a newbie bonsai "enthusiast". I recently lost my bonsai virginity to a Jacaranda tree that I bought a week ago. No only am I a bonsai newb, but I'm also a gardening newb so a warning - be patient with me  Anyway, just wanted to say and that I cant wait to experience the wonderful world of bonsai. |

Hey, My names rob. I live in south west michigan... and its snowing like crazy right now and its -3 out... BUT I started getting interested in bonsai a month before christmas. i bought a juniper for my girlfriend for christmas about 6 years old. which i thought was cool at the time but about a week after christmas and bought my own juniper and realized the one i bought for her Is grown totally crazy and in a pot thats probably way too big. But the one i bought is pretty small... Still small enough to shape and work with and probably 4 years old im guessing. Plus its in a training pot. Also i have a schefferella maybe about 4 years that im probably just gonna propagate... Hopefully that is. but ill try a forest type with those if i can do it right. But as all new people need i will need help. I have read ALOT on bonsai already but i am no professional. But this site has already helped alot.

Hey all im Rob
I've been having a look around the forum looks good! Anyway im from Melbourne, Australia im 29 and being doing bonsai for 1 year so far. Its been great so far, sharp learning curve. I have about 12 trees so far in various stages, most have been bought as trees to work on. I find it a relaxing past time and hope to learn more. Rob |

Justin McDowell at your services!
At the grandeur age of 23; I am very drawn to nature, especially the beach! My interest in bonsai started 2 years ago but I just recently began to educate myself about it. I have 3 trees so far, all in the training stages. they are: -my mallsai which i hope will eventually transform into something attractive (juniper) -A satsuki hybrid azalea (my baby) and im getting more when I find nice ones -and a manzanita that I dug up a few weeks ago and dont really know what to do with just yet. I want to make sure it survives first, of course. Hobbies besides bonsai: I live around, in, and for music (metal). I have been in several bands playing several instruments, but now I do my own thing. I just put out my first CD in July!! I like snowboarding I like hiking I like street bikes (i ride a 2006 Kawasaki ZX6RR) I like photography I like Karate I like gardening with my mom I I like educating myself about many things, politics, engineering, philosophy, science, and other nerdy things. And speaking of nerdy things I go to the renaissance faire many times every year in full costume... Huzzah!!! Ummm, Im getting married May 31st this year! Hooray! Im am a working student (ie both a machinist and a mechanical engineering major) I enjoy what I do very much. I have so many ambitions so I got no time to waste. Glad to be amongst fellow... (Id call you enthusiasts but that doesnt do you justice) Its the patience and value of natural art that I admire. Here is some goofy random pictures:  I used to have long hair playin a gig My fiance and I at disneyland super long time ago my bikeLast edited by Nerfgunn : 8-Mar-2008 at 11:34 PM. |
