Thanks for understanding. It's good to speak to someone else in the UK. What part?

What 名媛直播's do you have and how long have you been part of the art of 名媛直播?

The soil is indeed the soil it came in. Not sure what mix they normally in. I know sometimes the water sits on the surface almost like a bubble before sinking in. My other half refers to it as waterproof soil. I normally then bring out the tools and turn and rake the soil which sorts it.

I am in Cumbria.
I must admit I am myself also very new to bonsai. I have a few years of horticulture experience and accidentally stumbled across bonsai while browsing online and I’ve been hooked ever since.
I’ve acquired quite a few trees to learn from and practise the techniques.
My collection currently consists of: Chinese Elm, Carmona, Zelkova, San Jose Juniper, Myrtle Communis and a Azalea.
I have a few seeds planted from a starter kit as well, thought I’d give them ago, have 2 wisterias and Italian cypress germinated at the moment.
There always seems to be something to do.

Hey Al!
Last autumn I picked some seeds off of a Japanese maple and about 2 weeks ago they sprouted!

All I did was soak them in water for about 2 days and then put them into potting soil with a thin layer over them. They need to feel the wetness so water them with a water sprayer everyday and put them in the sun. Only about 10 out of 100 of my seeds germinated. 10% chance but why not keep trying!! Here’s a photo

Very nice. I am in all honesty not very green fingered at all. In my teenage years I had incredibly bad hayfever which stopped me from enjoying the outside. It's only recently I've started trying to get into it so really need to learn and I find it easier to learn from others. I have always found the art of bonsai fascinating and last year my girlfriend got me my first tree. It's been a rocky slope and I feel Ive made a few costly errors but overall I'm enjoying it.
