We made this composition in 2016. It was a funny little tree, so we made an unusual presentation on a rock and it’s been sitting out there maturing.

Today 2 videos are released.
One about Prunus Mume and a bit complicated and narrow time frames for wiring and pruning.

Here’s a GIF of a small Japanese Black Pine after a couple adjustments. These are subtle, so it may take several viewings to see the final adjustments.

Winter doesn’t mean we can’t work on some bonsai. It’s a good time to grab a Firethorn and set your fingers at a test.

We have a lot of news to share about this year’s event! I’ll provide the highlights below and will follow up with more detailed info over the coming months.

Happy New Year to all. Many thanks for your past purchases and I hope your new trees are healthy and you are starting to shape them.

A year ago we featured Michael Roberts on a couple blog posts, and here’s another one. Michael not only works with great care and patience over many years but also had the foresight to take photos of his subjects. Which makes posts like these a pleasure.

The post A New Year with Shohin Bonsai first appeared on Kisetsu-en Shohin Bonsai Europe.

Happy Holidays everyone! Take care of each other.

The 11th Winter Silhouette Bonsai Expo took place on December  2-3, 2023. As promised in my last blog, below are a few of the 66 photos Joe Noga took to commemorate the Expo.
