"........I'm grooming three silver britches as a bonsai group..........."
I presume they don't need pruning, but do you get problems with the flies on them??? -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |

The message
from "David Hill" contains these words: "........I'm grooming three silver britches as a bonsai group..........." I presume they don't need pruning, but do you get problems with the flies on them??? Visit us in The Shed and you'll get a lot more 'interesting' speeling to wonder at innit. But in the case of the silver britches I'm going to pull them up in the autumn as it gets a little cold round the thingummywotsits at that thyme of year. -- Rusty This space scribbled in in case someone nicks it before I find a decent sig. |

The message
from Rusty Hinge contains these words: I'll start a Chris mass box then. /me grins manically. There are those in this group who might satisfy your curiosity, but I'll let you think a bit more....... I`m a thinking. Gonna put that name into the word juggler and see what pops up I think. I'm grooming three silver britches as a bonsai group. I found a book on the art in a charititty shop, but I'm not altogether convinced by the author's examples of his own efforts. Silver birches as a group. Interesting concept, the hard part is keeping the perspective of it correct. I'll be making some more spicy sauce soon, so I'll have a couple of dozen tamarind beans to plant. I think I soaked the last lot too long as most of them went rotten very quickly and only one grew. This time I'll just wash them and bung them in deep seed trays. They're engaging little trees: the leaves are rather acacia-like, but fold up in direct sunlight, opening up again when the currant whatnot slopes off round the corner of the house and (de)lights other windows. -- Rusty http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/tqt.htm horrid·squeak snailything zetnet·co·uk excange d.p. with p to reply. I have seen Tamirind`s as Bonsai and they are quite interesting ar`nt they. -- email farmer chris on Please don`t use as it`s a spam haven. |

I'll plant you some blackthorn when I pick the sloes for guess what?, and some whitethorn soon. Dogwood? Ash? thinks is a bonsai giant redwood an oxymoron? -- Rusty http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/tqt.htm horrid·squeak snailything zetnet·co·uk excange d.p. with p to reply. |

Silly question is`nt that Rusty??? G Dogwood? Ash? Good stuff, Ash makes nice wee trees. thinks is a bonsai giant redwood an oxymoron? Possibly but it`s been done. Just have to keep pruning them often cos they grow so quick. If I knew what an oxymoron was I`d be a little more clued up. (Grammar school education aint wat it used to be). -- Rusty http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/tqt.htm horrid·squeak snailything zetnet·co·uk excange d.p. with p to reply. -- email farmer chris on Please don`t use as it`s a spam haven. |
