TOD - The rules

TreeBay

This forum is an experiment that has evolved out of some of the activities on the bonsaischool program.

I'm going to select a bonsai each week (?) to spark group discussion.

• Trees of the day don't belong to anyone you're likely to know, so there is very little chance that you're going to hurt anyone's feelings with your honest opinions, critique and suggestions. This is key.
• However, if you recognize the tree, please keep it to yourself until at least the next day.
• If you have a tree-of-the-day you'd like to submit, you can start a new thread (not a new post) in this forum. It won't appear immediately.

Some questions to ask about the tree of the day

1. What are the tree's strengths?
2. What are its weaknesses?
3. How could the tree be improved?
4. Does the tree have a message you could define in words?
5. How would you arrange the tree with other elements to create an interesting two or three-point display?

WANT TO MAKE A TOD SUBMISSION OF YOUR OWN?

• Start a new thread in this forum and include 1-3 views of your tree against a plain background. Include relevant details like height, species, years in training, etc.
• Your post won't immediately appear - it's gone to moderation.
• The post will be reviewed for suitability and we'll "anonymize" it so no one will know who submitted it.
• We'll contact you if we need larger photos. Our goal is to have one new TOD each week.

Regards,

Matt
