Bonsai Progress Clips (Fall - Spring)

Kind of an assortment of clips I took from fall 2023 through spring 2024.

Ah, the first signs of spring. Brings me a lot of joy to see swelling buds. Can't wait to see you tame those olives!

[@BonsaiBoise]

I chopped them down quite a bit last weekend! Not much to look at yet though. Once they leaf out I'll put a video together and show their journey.

Lots of work ahead Mike! Enjoy! Grts Kennet

[@BonsaiBoise]

Thanks Kennet!

It was nice to see most of your trees. That Silver Maple gets some awesome fall colors. The ones around here are underwhelming. Not sure if I've asked this before, but have you ever tried American Hornbeam as bonsai?

[@BonsaiBoise]

Thanks! And no I haven't. I actually have never had any hornbeam. I had a chance to pick up a grafted Korean hornbeam last year but I didn't do it. I wish I would've!

[@DeciduousSnurb]

Well ​I don't know if you accept gifts from subscribers or not, but I have a couple American Hornbeam left (2yr collected seedlings) if you are interested. I just got done sending Matt Brennan some recently and also sent Tony of 'Tony's Bonsai' some seeds about 18 months ago. Anyway just thought I'd offer, let me know if you would be interested. They're very cold hardy and the buds are getting ready to open.@@BonsaiBoise

@@DeciduousSnurb Wow, I'd love that! Are you on Facebook? I can message you there if you want

[@Kjbrunzo]

Hey Mike, it's me 'DeciduousSnurb" on my older account. I was trying to get a reply through but got removed for no apparent reason.

[@BonsaiBoise]

Oh hey! Did you get my reply earlier?
