AusBonsai

I decided to pot this one up, not really a bonsai but looks interesting to me.
so i thought i would post some pics.

This succulents (Crassula) does not make very good bonsai, or maybe after about 30-50 years and growing it into a big plant, it may resemble a Baobab. Rather go for Portulacaria if you want to grow a succulent as a bonsai.

just thought it looks cool

Beginning in Bonsai I dug this Crassula thinking of making it into a Baobab style. The tree is over 50 years old.

I have reduced the tree over time to get some backbuds going but to make it into a believable baobab style bonsai. I will still have to reduce it to the red lines. Interesting thing about this tree is that the wounds heal over 100% and in a very short time - no cambium rolling over, they shed the "internode"....and it's healed!

Hey Pat,
