Love the single flower. Often these have too many lowers and the delecateness is lost..

This little crassula I was gifted by a friend this winter. Surprising to find a tree-forming succulent which is winter hardy! I think I am a week or two away from flowers, from what I see in the branches.

...here is a Wisteria i dug up from my grandparents garden

I love it just because it has this only flower, beautiful!

...pic of my field maple

Wow! This is a chunky maple, Mimo!

...little crassula I was gifted by a friend this winter

I have quite a few, but they are nowhere close to this ramification of yours. Please post a picture when it flowers, mine never bloomed (yet).

And my (well, not mine anymore) little Juniperus horizontalis (creeping juniper or creeping cedar) that was sold last week... I will miss it!

I'm almost embarrassed to post my humble beginnings here next to some of your trees, but here they are. A Juniper I've done some styling to and a Ficus, my first two plants.

and a Ficus

Great little ficus!

Here a dogwood that was growing in my garden. In winter it has bright red bark on the younger branches. As this was going to the shredder I decided to try a little bonsaiwork on it. (Cornus sanguinea)

as I'm only been enjoying Bonsai for a few years now, here are some of my project trees. These are only the deciduous.

Nice projects, simplysaid. Always good to see people try the route less taken!

The same dogwood, but as it is today:

amazing how your eye gets trained to see what a tree CAN BE, rather than what it is. Dogwoods are really nice trees and I always enjoy your photo's and advice. You have an incredible eye.
