Japanese Garden....with Bonsai!!
Okay so today I went to a Japanese Garden in Long Beach, CA, and besides having a really awesome Japanese Garden, they had some very neat bonsai. I thought I'd post a few pics.

First up, a Chinese Elm:

The pomagranate is the best by far out of these. It seems as though_the forest plantings are very high but not very wide, which is accentuated by small pots. Just me I suppose.
