| Just taking a break from my usual addiction to the conifers forum:
Acer buergerianum 1875 (into training)
Bougainvillea glabra 1985 May2006
Cedrus atlantica 'Glauca' 1960
Chamaecyparis obtusa 1875
Pinus densiflora 1795 (That's right over 210 years old)
Pinus parviflora 'Miyajima' 1625 (How about 385+ years old)
Have a nice day bonsai guys!

| Thanks for posting these! For those who don't know, the white pine at the bottom of the page is called the "Yamaki" pine after the family that donated it to the United States. It was growing in a garden in Hiroshima, Japan when the bomb fell, but the trees in the garden were sheltered from the blast by a large wall. |

| Unbelievable!!!! Great pics. I would not want to be the caretaker of those. I would be afraid of killing one. Man that would suck. I would be afraid of repotting them. That would be a chore in itself. Thanks for sharing. |
