1000 You Tube Subscribers
I sort of said that I would be ignoring milestones on the blog until I hit a really big one, but this one’s not on the blog 🙂
Hard to believe that I have reached 1000 on my YouTube channel subscriptions. This has really pissed my son off as his only has 200 😀 Over 250,000 views as well!!

Accent of the Day – Erinus alpinus
He’s wasted on us !
Another excellent post by PW, worth reading for the quotes alone. Not that what he had to say was too bad either 😉
A Learning Experience
Pollen
Alot of trees seem to be having a good year as far as flowers go. I have seen a lot more flowers on pines, Scots, Mugo and Japanese White.
This ones a Mugo at Stephen’s house the other day. Anybody else seeing more of this this year?
This Common Juniper also at Stephen’s only had to be touched to raise a cloud of pollen.
Accent of the day – Lewisia
I have a lot of accent hitting their best at the moment, so I’m going to pop one or two up each day until I run out of plants or interest, whichever comes first 🙂

My New Baby
This is my latest acquisition, a Root over Rock Itiogawa Juniper from Willowbog Bonsai. This is it just as I bought it. I’m not working on it until the Peter Warren Workshop in September, but I will do a little clean up of the shari and bark and inner weak foliage.

My son’s nipples for scale 🙂
The Big Day
If you follow this blog you will have seen and heard a lot about one of my best friends in life and in Bonsai. I have known Phil now for 19 years, and today he marries Suse, who is way too good for him.
I’ll post the odd pic here as the day progresses but I just wanted to take this time to wish both Phil and Suse a long and happy marriage.
I wish I was going to Japan on honeymoon with you both 🙂
Snart on Tour Stop 5
Next stop was Kinbane Castle for a snack Lunch and a view from the North Coast looking towards Rathlin Island. The mist was blowing in and out along the coast and the view changed every few minutes. Due to a rock slide we couldn’t get down to the Castle.
Taking it all in.

Snart on Tour Stop 4
Next stop was the Dark Hedges just outside Armoy. This was also a first for me and I was keen to take a few photos. This country road is covered by some very beautiful old beech trees. Allie, my wife didn’t like them though, Dark for a reason, it’s haunted by a Grey Lady. Why is it always a grey lady?
