Mitch, Frank Doug and I took a road trip today to collect Virginia Pine.
The weather was perfect and the trees were better than we hoped. We dug some and marked others to collect in Feburary.
Besides Virginia pine we found chestnut Oak, Hop hornbeam American Linden, Hawthorn Spp. and even some nice Blueberry. All in all […]

This is a bonsai I have had for about 10 years. two years ago Marco did some detail wiring and suggested I change the planting angle. I took his advice when i re potted the tree into a pot i made last winter.
I like the new angle and the shallow pot very much.

Well I was able to dig out enough snow to open the door to the greenhouse and have a look at my bonsai.
