I especially like the variegated one Stuart. So what are your plans, are these going to be grafted onto some of your stock plants? Will you do this now or later on? That soil was really horrible wasn't it! Just like pure compacted clay as you said and rather wet too. I think they have gone to a better home now with you! Please let us know how you get on with them?

Wow, beautiful flower and variegation, Stewart. Sending good vibes your way for successful grafting.

That last photo is interesting. Looks like a stomach or an embryo ... depending on how you hold it. Would love to see what that looks like in 5 years!

Thank you Gill. Yes I will graft them. A few now and a few later. The grafted plants i will sell. The NOID was rotten a few times but it will be oke from now on.

Maria Elena, it's surprising what we can see within our plants isn't it? I can see the stomach, it's even got a duodenum! Getting a bit medical now aren't we, lol. Seems like Stuart has also been doing some surgery with the scalpel on that last one, I see scar tissue! Hope all goes well with them Stuart. Those last flower pics look stunning especially the last one, I liiiike that one!

Wich one will be a better bonsai tree or anyone have someting else? in pic #2 the branches will curved upwards

I like the potentially dramatic cascade #2 will create, mimicking a fallen or cliff-hanging tree. I know you like to push the envelope and it'll look interesting in 5 years or so.

#3 is my 2nd choice for the same reasons but obviously with less dramatic results.

Hmmmm. Good thank you Maria Elena. But 5 years? Right now!!!!!

Ha, ha, ha! Well, maybe not that long. I mean, it'll look really nice once it settles into its new position, thickens up, nature takes its course, the limbs curve upwards, it gets pruned for multiple branching, then they all bloom. Ah! I can picture it.

The NOID was potted up yesterday and

Nicely potted up..it looks great.Like a war wounded soldier with the bandages etc..why are the black spots there? Was it rotten in those places? Just wondering.

Wow, totally love the way you potted them, changed the look from nondescript to spectacular
