First entry

Having recently become interested in the art of bonsai I have collected a number of trees, maybe 20, of various ages and species.

This blog is meant to give me a way to keep record of my trees and document their growth.

Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa)

This Prunus spinosa was collected late summer 2012. I didn't manage to get a lot of fine roots but in a couple of weeks it started back budding all over. My plan as of now is to sweep the branches back to the left to balance the trunk. Overall lengt 45 cm.
