Pick this one up for 2 bucks at the brisbane flea market on sunday. It was wilted and I thought it would not revive. Looks fine after a few rains.

yes mate shohin is awesome :D once you have a few yo can stop with a couple you just want more, and the great thing is you can fit more shohin on a bench than you can big trees ;)

Can't agree more jamie. It's just that it seems to be harder to look after of shohin bonsai as they are usually in smaller pots and less soil.

nah mate same as a bigger tree, sometimes needs two waterings is all, i can get away with one on a nice day especially when they are in a good mix, diatomite and a bit of organic for moisture retention and your sweet mate :D
