Default [IBC] Satsuki problem - bark splitting

Thanks for your help guys. I appreciate it.
Lauren


Since you are accumulating a good number of Satsuki potensai, you
probably should get Alexander Kennedy's "Floral Treasures of
Japan: The Satsuki Azaleas." It's self published (Splatt Press
(!) in England) and the only place _I_ know of that carries it
here (USA) is Stone Lantern -- www.stonelantern.com.

Kennedy has another, shorter and cheaper book, "Satsuki" but it
lacks the detail and is VERY hard to find. Splatt Press again.
Our best local plant nursery occasionally has a copy.
(www.tallahasseenurseries.com)

Peter Adams' "The Art of Flowering Bonsai" also has a nice
section on Satsuki.

Odd that the best of the available (in print) Satsuki books are
all by Englishmen.

Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Only where
people have learned to appreciate and cherish the landscape and
its living cover will they treat it with the care and respect it
should have - Paul Bigelow Sears.
