First Frost

Last night was the first frost of the season here where I live. I’m at sea level so it is usually a little milder that most but it is definitely a little later in the season this year.

Time to do a little clearing and tucking away of a few delicate species of tree.

Missed it!

 

That recent bout of bad weather ruined my chances of getting a decent Autumn colour shot of a few of my trees!! Leaves one day and gone the next ❗

Happy Halloween

For all those dressing up tonight, don’t drink too much and have a good time. The best  looking Halloween bonsai image I could come up with was my wee avatar 🙂

Another Alder

Not just as stunning as the last one I shared in a reblog from El Tim but a nice progression all the same. This one’s for you Stephen.

This is now in the caring hands of the Bonsai Baker but the previous owner has sent me photos of it from a few years back when it started out. He actually grew this from seed!

I’m not sure what dates these where taken but the last two are from the workshop at the weekend.
