My place: As time goes by

This is maybe a little non-bonsai topic. Since we bought an old house in the summer of 2008, I try to arrange a good place for living of my little trees. As I renovate the old house, I cultivate my bonsai place. Here are some photos, as my bonsai corner grows.
Toto je trošku nebonsajová téma. Odkedy sme kúpili starý dom v lete 2008, snažím sa nájsť dobré miesto na život mojich malých stromov. Ako renovujeme dom, kultivujem aj môj bonsajový kútik. Tu je zopár fotiek, ako postupne rastie.

Summer 2008

Very first bonsai corner in April 2009. I started to build my collection and moved some trees from my parents garden.

Birch tree "PEPE" in my cloudy pot

This is the second pot that I made during winter. It was made for this birch, now in new fresh foliage.
Toto je druhá miska, ktorú som vyrobil cez zimu. Miska bola urobená pre túto brezu, teraz s novým čerstvým lístím.  

Inspirational roots

I don´t know if these are surface roots, or widen low part of the trunk, but I really like it. These trees are elms, growing on a little swampy area, near the stream in Bratislava, Horský park. Remarkable shapes, as sharp as blades :) Almost similar as one of the roots on my beech No.3 from previous post.
Neviem či sú toto povrchové korene, alebo rozširujúce sa spodné časti kmeňov, každopádne sa mi veľmi páčia. Sú to bresty, rastúce v močaristej pôde, blízko potôčika v Horskom parku v Bratislave. Obdivuhodné tvary, ostré ako čepele. Takmer také, ako jeden z koreňov na mojom buku č. 3 z predchádzajúceho príspevku.
