Wednesday Bonsai night.

I have had a very busy night with Tony W and John R tonight and enjoyed every moment of it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tony brought this Mugo pine, mainly for some advice on how to open it up to allow light to get to the inside and so produce some health and back budding.


Only one branch was removed, but has done the job.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

John's tree, a Swamp Cypress, which has had this hollow in the trunk for a number of years.
He wanted to know if it could be filled to look a little more natural.


I started with an old dead trunk and adapted it to fit.


It takes quite a while to do.


But worth the effort.


A few coats of Lime Sulpher will help to make the whole of the deadwood the same.


He was very pleased with the end result.
