Bauganvila (thrown by someone)














In the year November-2005 some one had thrown a bauganvila plant.. which i had take it at my home.. and after intial choping some branches.. and clear the trunkline, i had just plant it in a (2 feet wide) cement pot... while that i was not so clear what to do with this plant... and I am writing this the truth that " i was not known bonsai basics properly " . but i wanted to make this plant a beautiful bonsai.. so,, after one year i got first beautiful output from that plant ,, which i have shown you in the first (vertical) picture... from the horticulture point of view.. it was nice looking plant.. but not even 10% of bonsai........

But with the thorough journey of bonsai i learn it better later .. and recently (in march-2007) i had chopped it again with selected two main trunks... (even one trunk is too streight..)and repot it in rectangle mud pot...

In November 2008, i had got proper triangular shape.. and good future too....so,,than after i continue to work on it.. and tried to make bold remification in both the levels.. not the flowers.

Still it is in the same pot.. and done one more repotting .. after that i had taken this two latest photoes with front and back.. i have never expect flowers in these 4 years.. because my aim is to make better bonsai,not flowering plant.


March-2010, i had reduce the height of stright looking trunk,, and tried to make it smaller than the previous one,, now this plant has got the final ceramic pot,, and you can see the decent look of this plant. Still this is not bonsai, because i have to create better remification and triangular shape, and than the flowers.




Fact is --> if i chopped it in the year 2005 with this (current) height , i must get better result than this within this 4 years. so, i agree of my slow bonsai work, but in these years i am doing better. So, final call is "BONSAI you can learn better with our own experience ,, not with good knoledge , either you have take guidence of experienced bonsai masters"
