oh wow, we have a bonsai forum!

I don't grow any, so I never knew....

I was at the National Arboretum in Washington, DC yesterday, and took a slew of photos of part of their bonsai collection. I even took pics of the tags and have labeled the pics ;-)

So I thought that folks might be interested. Plant names and years of training are under the photos (if the bonsai was labeled). I was shocked by how old some of the bonsai in the Japanese collection are.
