Camellia has red-tinged new leafs

新しい葉の赤い色が好きです。ベランダの椿です。

This camellia has survived in a small pot for many years. Since the photo was taken, I realize it’s already setting buds for winter.

Persimmon bonsai in two stages: new leaf, and early summer

この柿の盆栽の世話をするのは簡単です。今年は円形に枝を曲げました。

This persimmon bonsai has been very easy to care for, and this year I’ve pulled two branches down to the base of the trunk, creating a circular shape. Above is how it looks now at the verge of summer. Below, new leaves pushing out in March.
