This weekend we had a small meeting in our local bonsai club in my garden. Only a few people, but a nice time working on our bonsai. Also the last day with sun before the long waited rain comes, helping the dry soil in the garden and the suffering plants. We really need the rain now. Many bonsai are on their way with flowers, as well as the accents are.

May is a busy bonsai month
So many things to take care of in the bonsai garden, and further more local demonstrations, and a travel to Brazil to do demo and workshop with Shohin-bonsai in focus. Makes job and family being a little set aside this month. Sorry family, sorry job. But I love it this month, where everything happens. Pines needs their elongating needle bundles pinched, maple must be leaf thinned, junipers pinched i.e. All at once, but it is enjoyable to take the small trees in the hand and work with them.The picture shows the work on a Berberis that will appear in Bonsai Focus later this year i expect. (Bonsai Focus is the new version of Bonsai Europe and Bonsai Today melted together in one great magazine).
