Bonsai!!
The third thing I saw at the Phoenix Art Museum last Sunday was a display from the Phoenix Bonsai Society of some beautiful bonsai trees. The one above is beautifully shaped.
I had never seen a bougainvillea plant done as a Bonsai but this one was quite spectacular with all it's red blooms.
At the other end of the table was another bougainvillea only this one was white.
I wonder if I could grow one! Considering my luck with plants, probably not but, I sure did enjoy looking at these beauties.
Now I've shown you three different special things going on at the museum last weekend. But, I'm not done yet. I have another special exhibit to show you tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous bonsai trees!! I think you should try one yourself.
Very nice. Julie and I love to see the bonsai trees at the Huntington Library and Gardens in Pasadena.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteThese are magical, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteI love bonsai trees, they are so fascinating!
ReplyDeleteI love these things but we don't have at home. We've got one bamboo plant which is doing well, though. I think you ought to try growing a Bonsai. Then you could instruct the rest of us via your experience. :)
ReplyDeleteThe first bonsai is Wonderful! So original. It takes such a long time and such a skill.
ReplyDeleteI had no clue these existed either. I'm no good at bonsais whatsoever...
ReplyDeleteI am fascinated by bonsai. Don't think I have the patience to grow it, however.
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I'd end up doing to bonsai would be causing a premature death to the plants.
Sharon, I think they make silk bonsai plants. They don't even need to be watered.
ReplyDeleteNow that is something I wish I could grow.
