My Blue Pine Plant

Before I go out shopping, I want to share my masterpiece. I planted my blue pine plant and got it for only $2.07 here in my neighborhood. A neighbor is selling his plants at a cheaper price. It is supposed to be a tree, but it is a bonsai type. Do you like bonsai plants? Any new plants at your place?

That is nice plant you have. I know they can grow wide and you can just adjust or trim them from time to time you you can have a good form. My Grandfather used to make bonsai plants too. He would put on some wires to the young and soft branches to somewhat train the branch to a certain position after sometime he would remove it and it would looked like it is an old tree but grew up small.

@rsa101 I wish I can have the talent of doing it. I found the culprit who stole it. It's our tenants before.

I had seen some bonsais that have wires. I had a favorite bonsai before that formed as a tree. Unluckily, it was stolen.

My dad has created bonsai plants ever since I can remember. He still does it - and there are many, big and small, in their yard. Wow, that is a super cheap price!

@Shavkat Like any art, it takes time . . . my dad would say it is a lifetime of learning - something one never perfects. We know of bonsai that cost hundreds of dollars.

I hope I can learn how to do it. That being said, I would not buy bonsai plants anymore. It was hard bargaining at first, eventually, the seller gave in.

I think it is easy since they need some water and be on the shades as much as possible.

I love bonsai plants. I should think you were very lucky to get this lovely tree for such a low price.

At first, it costs three times. I am glad that I still have the skill of bargaining.

@Shavkat We bought my mother one for her 70th birthday. That was in 1980. It was expensive even then.

@Shavkat That is great what you got for a nice price. I have never had one so cannot tell you if I like one or not. I do not have any plants so nothing new here.

@Shavkat it would be nice. I'd rather have a mini Zen garden though.

Jus weed, and finally dry grass from all the rain. The trees are thinning due to the cooler weather.

I can feel the coldness there. It must be troublesome because of this rainy weather.

It is. It's not good on joints and whatnot. This time of year, I tend to take more pain meds than other times. @Shavkat

I find it cool to have a small tree in the house. I am not also good at making a tree to a bonsai one.

No plants here. But I'd like to have a snake plant here at home since it's a good indoor plant to have - according to my friend.

I love bonsai, there is an aesthetic in every twig arch, even the oldest bonsai has a life span of several thousand years, bonsai is my life
