Oleander #2

And this is the second one. It has the same history as the first one, it just isn't as dense as the first yet.





Oleander #1

I 'stole' this oleander from my mom in 2008.

Right after the theft I repotted it and cut all unneeded branches.


In 2009 it got this dense - still not enough.


And here this week after defoliation.


Wired, styled, and photographed.

Open door day

In summer there is not happening much in general. And that is just why yesterdays visit in the garden of Wolfgang Putz felt very plesent. His garden is one of the most, if not the most tidy in the whole world.
'Course it is also full of good bonsai.

Barbazza

But not the center in Italy but the juniper I bought there.
Let me tell a short version of it's history: I got it last year in December and repotted it in spring. Now, when it recovered from the repotting, I decidet to make some jins and shari from the branches I was sure not to use in the final design.

Before.



From this angle the live vein really looks superb.

Finished for now. The detailed wiring will take place next year.

To be continued...
