New Staging - So, a Full Bonsai Update 

Thanks - it's still not 'right' in one place but I'll think on it.

A 'structural' element as well as allowing for individual trees to be displayed better.

Yes - looking forward to the Summer blooms and the visitors they will bring. The shed and fence is the next ' big job'.

Thanks - the staging adds some structure to the garden - some 'hard within the soft'.

Thanks - the new tree stands add some structure and height to the garden as well as 'showing off' some trees.

Thanks - I think this year will see the whole garden come together.

Thanks - There will be a full garden update posted tomorrow (Monday) - filmed on Saturday just after setting up the Bonsai.

Thanks Rick. I used to have many many Bonsai but like others, they were mainly 'sticks in pots'. Quite a few years agon I sold off most of them keeping the ones I liked best. The two 'sister Acers' were just 6" cuttings when I got them. Keep your eye on this channel as I will be doing a full garden update soon where I will look at all the plants/shrubs etc. I've tried to create the 'feel' of the edge of a woodland clearing with mainly English native plants. The garden was a mess when I moved in and a lot of hard work has been put into get where I am now. Not finished, but much closer to where I want to be.

Thanks - I will post a full 'Garden Update' soon.

Thanks.

Thanks - it's taken a lot of work the past two years, but this year, it's more for enjoying.

Thanks - and welcome. I don't post often as I only have a few trees.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Thanks (I've submitted a video for a collaboration with Gavin "Notanotherbonsaichannel" where there is a pan around the garden and a look at some of my trees as of July 12th - so much more recent. I do need a 'Summer Trim' especially on my Maples and some Pines to sort out too.)

I imagine they are made from tanalised timber - certainly stained with wood protector.

The stain is water-proof - the surfaces will probably get a new coat each year.

@@RogersGardenandBonsai That dilapidated old shed needs a couple of coats of stain (if it's even worth preserving!). It detracts from your efforts elsewhere. However, splurging money and work on your landlord's fixtures is not something I'd be inclined to do, but it is an eyesore as you've commented before.

@@AntPDCRoger has a plan for the shed. It is on his to do list

@@venehamilton7010 Ah right, thanks.
