Anyone free in a few months to dig out 40yr old shimpaku :)

Post by purelydaniel »

this year I have found 4 junipers and 2 of them over 30 years old and the others not that old, that I have asked and been given permission to uproot and take home. Now I know its not the right time to dig out but does anyone want to help me when I do :) also is anyone interested in some old and young olives as well as some privet ? privet stuff from 10 dollars each :)
let me know

Howdy,
A few more details would be a help, Qld is big. I'm on the northside, but may be able to get a leave pass.
PM is you wish to.
Happy bonsai,
Bruce.

Hey Daniel,
Do you a deal. If you pay for the ticket I'll fly up and help you dig it. Now that sounds like a fair deal :o sorry bit far to drive. Document the dig for us so we can see the fun you have. Good luck with it.

Josh.
