Inspired by several trips to the National Arboretum, and sidelined from Rock Climbing while my knee heals/recovers/stays the same, I am intrepidly undertaking a new hobby: Training bonsai trees!
it's a slow process, but i've taken the first step: getting a tree. Two, actually. One's more of a shrub right now, but with a little patience and diligence (virtues I often lack, and hope to cultivate through bonsai) both will grow into great looking bonsai.
in the pictures: The little shrub is a flowering quince, and the tree is a trident maple.

you're just starting out, eh? need any book recommendations? You didn't exactly pick the easiest trees to start with... and it's pretty late in the year to do much with them other than buckle them in for the cold weather... good luck, my friend!
