Phil would be one of my closest friends in the bonsai scene in Northern Ireland. We don’t always agree on what way a tree should go, which I think is a good thing. It leads to more debate and different ideas.
Anybody who knows Phil will know what I mean when I say he’s a bit of a header!! That’s a local term similar to eejit 🙂 To highlight this I thought I would share these photos with you. It is typically how Phil shows you the scale of a tree.
This is his Quince, recovered from an overgrown garden over 10 years ago.
and for scale….


the little dog has the look of someone who has to share Suse with Phil , in fact share anything with Phil 🙂
