And some of the conifers
Some of my favourite junipers:
As many of us are used to seeing pictures of Mr Palls bonsai on the internet, however we often cannot realize the real size until we see them in person. So here are a couple of photos that shows their size well!
This trip was a veeery nice experience, with very pleasant and enjoyable hosts! Thank u Mr and Mrs. Pall!!!
Only when i arrived back home, I realized that I'd experienced a bonsai shock. I had been surounded by too many trees of great value and quality in too small a space, almost unaware of where I was exactly. It had become almost normal to say ''oh, this one is nice, and this one is nothing special blah blah''. You walk beside some trees not paying too much attention, because you are drawn by something bigger, more impressive, something that catches your eye in another part of the garden. But any of those trees that I didn't study as closely would still be the centre of most enthusiast's gardens, showed to everyone as something special.
So, I can't wait to go over there again next year, and check out every single tree, even if it takes me the whole day...to learn and see something new every time!!
