Bonsai Cotoneaster

That looks very attractive Sheila.

Nice going Sheila. I really must give bonsai a try some day!

Thank you Klahanie.

Thanks Karen . . . it's fun, and very rewarding, and can be done sitting down!

That is so pretty,Sheila,I love it..how long have you had it,? I'm ignorant as far as Bonsai are concerned..

Gosh - thanks Sandra. Probably about ten years: once their roots are restricted, growth is Very Slow!

You must have the patience of a saint,Sheila..which I lack,I'm afraid..I want to see things grow, like yesterday! lol..but it would be a lot easier,not to have to repot most things :o)..It must be a fascinating hobby.:o)

What I love is appreciating the growth and shape of a mini tree close up. But I DO NOT have the patience of a saint, Sandra, quite the reverse! I think the 'trick' might be that I have about a dozen different dwarf trees, so am not paying attention to them all the time. In Spring I root-prune some, tidy the growth of some, and keep them watered all year . . . for much of the time they are ignored!

Sounds easier than I thought,Sheila..:o)

Definitely easy the way I do it . . no wiring or faffing :)
