Hi.Gardeners

Having long been an admirer of Georges Moon gate{And who hasn`t] I decided to have a moon window instead It may be a bit less ambitious but it was easy and cheap
Wishing you all a happy season
Regards Brian

Hi Brian,
Thanks for your kind comments and your moongate window looks brilliant.
What is that on the right of your photo is it a Juniper or a pine, what ever it is it is certainly looking good and I think you should put a photo on here for us all to have a look at it.
All the best George.

Nice to hear from you George.

The cloud tree was an old blue juniper that died in the middle
abd after cutting all the dead and brown leaves from the centre it accidentaly looked like something that had been deliberatly trained that way.which gave me a good start
The smaller bonsai on yhe shelf to the right is a chinese juniper boughy fro a garden nursery [not as a bonsai]but pruned and trained as one.
I am continually searching local nurseries and re cycling dumps fo cast off shrubs and likely yamadori in the hopes of collecjtng something that I can turn into what looks like 200 year old japanese masterpiece

Well done :)
