Bonsai tree

After. A twin trunk Mountain hemlock that was collected, styled and placed on a very thin piece of plastic by Michael Hagedorn and friends.

It’s been a while…

…since we featured Michael Hagedorn (Crataegus Bonsai). This is partly because lately we’ve been focusing more on international bonsai than North American bonsai; and partly because if we do too much Michael, you might suspect there are kickbacks involved (Michael is way too clean for that; as for me…).

Before. Collected Mountain hemlock (Tsuga mertensiana).

What’s this?

Post-Dated is still the most enjoyable bonsai book I’ve ever read.
