Bonsai update '08
 

Ok not all these are bonsai but they are miniature gardens so they are in the category of bonsai. The first is my new one with a mini Columbine and mini hosta. The second is my large mini garden:scratchhead: that I just planted, when it all grows in there will be a pathway of irish moss through the middle like grass, I just have to find my mini lawnmower. The third is my larger rock/ alpine planting which is also newly planted. The fourth is a Hemlock in bonsai training.Fifth is my Hemlock grouping from my other thread, now that everything is growing it looks much better than before. the cool rock pots are from Stone Art Miniature Gardens Ltd. but I have never ordered from them.

Very cool! You have an eye for this.

Love your miniatures!

Thanks Y'all, sorry about the double photo, I fixed it

Those are simply beautiful. Where do you get the containers? Are these difficult to set up? Do they stay out all winter?

The stone containers are from Stone Art Miniature Gardens Ltd.. The round bowls are from your average garden center and the bonsai pot (which is actually plastic) is from a local greenhouse but hvent seen them since I bought it. These are very easy to set up and care for and they do stay out ll winter.
