Any ideas? #cactus with new growth. Cut it off so all the energy goes into the main plant? Re-plant the new growth??

Your drift wood is far more impressive than my piece of bog oak. Eyes peeled for a future upgrade... No rush

Next #Bonsai project. Have enjoyed watching this syringa vulgaris bud up & blossom but very hesitant to begin bonsai process. Fear of the unknown 🌱

Gotta love Spring. Have watched this recent acquisition, Syringa Vulgaris open up this week. Do I attempt to #Bonsai this year or leave it alone to thicken up for 12 months....? 🌱

Australian living in Donegal. The Cork, real capital like, is priceless. That said, prefer your gardening climate that being perched on the edge of the Atlantic!!
