My lovely Robina

My lovely Robina

I can sit on my settee and admire my little yellow/green tree. He would be a full size tree, except for being clipped in Spring and Autumn.
He is umberella shaped, size approx 12 foot high. One of my hobbies was Bonsai trees, he is my biggest.

this is lovely, I have one, but it is still quite small. I am looking forward for mine to get bigger. They do grow quite big. Don't they?

Hi Marquerite, You should see him today after the frosts during the night he is very unhappy. We took a photos of the garden this morning, but I require husbands' assistance in hooking camera to computor and sending them down, will have to wait for a opportune minute, perhaps when he's eaten! I will get to grips with doing it myself.

This is gorgeous and such a lovely shape.

Hi MagnilaT. There are only a few leaves left on today. His shape is more defined without leaves.According to the Chineese, trees are to be seen at their best in winter, when the trunks and branches are exposed.
