My first trees

Hi everyone!

I got interested in Bonsai about 10 years ago.. but I never really got into it till now!
These are not actually my first trees as I have an 10 year old and very small tree wich I actually dont know the name of..

The Fukien Tea is one that I bought from a shop a week ago. The I repotted and pruned it.. I love it!

The second one is a Nana Gracillis wich I also bought from a shop.. but today! -I am sorry that I dont have and "before" pictures, so I could show you the progress, but this is fine as the tree is far from finished!
First thing was to prune the roots. The I potted it in this beatuyful pot. Then I found out that it leaned to a 'wrong' side.. so I found my old stone collection and found a nice piece of black stone that suited perfectly!
Then I pruned the body.. MAN!! -it took a while!!
MAN!! - I love it!!

hehe

please tell me what you think of my first projects! And what training ideas you can come up with.. I have thaught about a wind blow effect on the Juniper.. dunno yet

Take care,

W

Great start. Best bet is always to let things sit abit after repotting. Hopefully you can get together with a group of bonsai addicts and work your way through the process. Best of luck.
