Polyscias - Gokan Bonsai Style


My very first tried for a Gokan Style Bonsai with Polyscias 
(using those propagated from the main plant that I've bought from IKEA)
Note those wires are just to support the trunks in place and not really wiring/shape the branches.

Wrightia Religiosa

Wrightia Religiosa

Comparing its mini multi-petal flower (~5mm) to a large multi-petal flower (~20mm)


Decided to air-layer this mini multi-petal flower breed; after my bold decision, plan, cut the barks, applied root hormone powder and position the transparent containers.
Hope to have 5 of them in few weeks time.

Filled containers with mixed garden soil

Watered them and shall update their 
development soon.. so....stay tune..

Polyscias - Propagation from cut-backs
This is about 3 months of growth from cutting.
The plastic pot was reused (originally from its parent Polysicas).

These are the baby Polyscias from the main plant. 
They were propagated from all the past cut-back of the main plant (between 2-4 months ago).
Now they have new roots on them.
The latest addition (cutted/planted today) is the one on the top-right pot. 

Few of it were put together to form a Polyscias Bonsai.

Polyscias - Garden

This photo was taken on 3 August 2014.
It was planted 3 weeks ago (12 July 2014) during a cut-back session. 
3 stems (without root) were buried horizontally onto the soil.
I was surprised to note that there were moss grown naturally on the soil surface, just over 3 weeks!
