oh they know only too well not to touch my trees. they wouldnt even think about it i dont reckon

and if they did i think i would have to go get them at their grand mothers because i think thats where they would be running

they are good kids though...most of the time.

My 4 1/2 year old Jessica just potted up a 'found' fuchsia seedling with small flowers. Not a bonsai yet, but we will be watching it to see how it grows.

how greth sounds like you have a bonsai artist in the makings too

and the girls wanted to say something to everyone

both of them said- thank you all for the comments. and you will see more of our trees when we get them. we have to be good for dad to let us have them

and everyone is allowed to come over if they want too

and dad says its ok.

back to me-

arent they great

looks like a bonsai session at my place

Sooo.... who's up for a trip to queensland?

Sure if you are paying Jordy, but I would rather skip cyclone season, if you don't mind.

Wow, I don't think I could do any better than your kids. Well done girls. My two little girls love to work with me in the garden too. They are so keen to help with watering but I don't think their little hands are strong enough for helping with wiring. Maybe another 5 years when they are your girls' age.
Best regards to your family.
cheers,
DK

lol, its great having the little ones work with ya such funny little buggers. and they needed some help with the wiring and how to bend etc. but they pretty much chose how they wanted it with a few little tips.
such a proud dad i am of them and i am sure your little ones will get into it before to long. they'll start asking questions like "why are you putting that wire on" and stuff like that. now they have done it they understand a bit they want another tree this weekend, how can i say no when its their birthday
cheers,
DK

Happy b'day to your girls. Jamie, what a great opportunity to buy more bonsai stocks too

Just tell your missus that you want your little girls to have a quality collection of bonsais by the time they are 18 and that it's logical to start collecting now

Cheers

done a couple of virts as to where i see my girls trees in a couple of years. i reckon they will look good

it may be a bit bias but still i think they have done well with out thinking or knowing about forward vision

luckily they got a good dad that can do that for them

(man i feel like i am blowing my own trumpet there

)

jamie

ps- DK

i reckon you got it spot on there, it will also give me something good to look at and watch grow aswell, along with my girls and their love for bonsai

Well there you go Jamie, beautiful girls and now joining dad and maybe mum all in their one Bonsai Garden. I know they will get great pleasure from this, as I am a lot older, and I really love to be with my trees.
Jamie I have done the leaves on my Fig as you suggested but I am having trouble trying to make the pictures small enough to show.

good luck girls. sheba53
