Each temperature zone should have its own New Year. In the northern
hemisphere, it would vary from February 1 to June 1; below the Equator,
August 1 to December 1.
The exact date could vary too, depnding upon when the earliest buds begin to
swell. This way, New Years would occur almost every day of the year in some
part of the world. Wouldn't it be great to celebrate New Years every day?
We can , you know, because each new day is a precious, unique gift given to
all mankind. At least, I think so.

Off line, Iris and I were musing about the variety of
new years celbration dates. She reminded me that they
go from September through the beginning of February.
Many of these celebrations are tied into agricultural
events, harvest, budding, dormancy, etc.

So what do you think would be an appropriate bonsai
new years date?
