Bellezza said...: You bring the Spring to me even when it is cold and rainy where I am, which includes my heart a little bit right now. Thank you for the little bit of color.; 6:11 PM

I understand the feeling and hope it warms up soon where you are.; 8:39 PM
AscenderRisesAbove said...: i would really like to grow one of these. one year i tried to take a normal tree and turn it into this. IT. DID. NOT. WORK. you have to start from scratch. my daughter got me lily pad seeds and i want to make sure the sun stays out before i plant those. i am afraid they will die and i dont have seeds to replant them

Bobby D. said...: Phd girl planted two small Japanese Plums trees (up in the Catskills) and carefully tied several of the branches together --they grew together to form a nice archway to walk through. and the plums taste good, too.; 7:33 PM
Diane Dehler said...: A plum flower archway must be very lovely, Ched.

Yes, Lee..frou frou is the word. It's also why I love ballerina poppies too.

No, Calm..they grow in the garden where I have flute lessons.

Ascender, lily pad seeds sound really special. How do you get them to sprout?; 9:42 PM
Jackie said...: It makes all the work that people to growing bonsai well worth while. They are stunning.; 10:19 AM
Livia Gnos said...: I have been searching for a bonsai here where I live... but haven't found the one for me... now I am dreaming of a flowering little tree... and poppys are smiling on my balcony; 2:05 PM

AscenderRisesAbove said...: princess haiku;

they come in this little kit; four little precious seeds. you put them in a container; distilled water seems to be the thing; changing the water every two or three days. they sprout after two weeks, leaf after two weeks, flower after two weeks (i note a trend)

i am going to take a photo and try to put the progression up on my blog every week. we'll see...

you wouldn't think the distilled water would be such a big deal. i see lily pads in the park all the time. the water hardly looks distilled; in fact it appears to need a certain amount of funk to it!
