The Fascinating Fascicle with Dan Robinson

[@elijahcrabtree7338]

What a wealth of knowledge. Dan forgot more about trees than I will ever know.

[@kylegus3996]

Elijah Crabtree Dan is fantastic about sharing his knowledge. People drop by Elandan gardens in Bremerton WA all the time with questions for him.

[@elijahcrabtree7338]

Kyle, I have been lucky enough to chat with Dan in the past, and now that I live on the peninsula again I plan to visit Elandan soon. His trees should be flowering soon I think.

[@kylegus3996]

Elijah Crabtree some are already flowering, but the peak should be in about 1-2 weeks, depending on the weather obviously.

When is the best time to candle cut black pines ?

[@kylegus3996]

Once the new needle candles have pushed 90% of their new growth out.

I've always wanted to do Bonsai! but it takes wayy to long to get a good root base / tree trunk :) So I always pass! one day ill find a nice 25+ Year old Shrub and ill make me a Bonsai :P

[@kylegus3996]

Michael Wood learning where to find good tree material is key. Joining a local bonsai group/society is a great first step.

No it doesn't. Go find a base in your yard or woods.
