Tree Tips

Best rain year in recent memory. And snow at the higher elevations! Even with the cold weather most trees are popping and we only have a short window open to transplant certain trees.

President’s Message

After much discussion with our board of directors regarding the cancelation of our first Thursday meeting, we decided to reinstate January's Tree Improvement Program to this month’s first February meeting.

Tree Tips

We should have plenty of water this year even if we don’t see much in the next couple of months. Still I hope there is more on the way in February and March.

Tree Tips

Each time we transplant gives us another opportunity to improve our tree’s nebari and accelerate the growth and development of our trees.

Here we are at the end of another year with the Midori Bonsai Club—often a time of year when we get a chance to reflect on what our lives have experienced or accomplished.
