Hi Bigbabol, glad to see you here...
and next:
This (midium leaf)blue bell I bought last year


And now

Blue bell with natural deadwood in training

Dear all,

The first time I saw Blue bell was in Lombok, a small island east of Bali. Later on I found out that it was also growing in Philippines. But now I knew that the beat blue bell is in Vietnam. They have not only small leaves blue bell, but also the species with white flower. It is also white bell than.


The white flowers on the tree.

Budi

Hey Budi,

nice to see you here! Hope you had a good stay in Switzerland!
The blue or white bell seems to be a very interesting species for bonsai.
It reminds me of Buxus as I think it grows similar.

Hi Max,

I really had a good time in Swtzerland. The country is very very beautiful. I love the bonsai as well.
Blue bell is slightly different from buxus. The l,eaves of blue bell will close at the night time like tamarind and pithecellobium.

Budi

you have done some nice work! It's a great pleasure to see such beautiful bonsai. Your English is very good and we are very glad to have you.

Hi everyone, is there anyboby know the common name of this tree?
Tks
Phyllanthus cochinchinensis
Or Phyllanthus welwitschianus Muell.-Arg. (P. cochinchinensis Spreng.), Euphorbiaceae ?

Hi Qui,

Warm welcome and thank you for your posting.

Hi there, I got an olive and I am wondering which side should be the front of the tree.
I need your ideas and suggestions about my tree. Thanks.

(I prefer the view on picture No4 but Picture No1 also looks suitable. )

P No1


P No2


P No3


P No4


P No5

I think p no 4 is the most appealing front to the tree due to the direction the trunk curves.

I haven't visited the forum for some time, but I'm very pleased people from Vietnam join in, the way you style your trees can be quite different from the European fashion, and it's very inspirational.

So welcome to IBC and thanks for posting

This tree gives flowers once a year. We control it to give flowers during traditional Tet - Lunar new year. Especially first blooms are on the first few days of lunar new year.

Hi Qui,
It is so lovely! what is the specie.

Interesting pot too, though the pebbles on the soil IMHO shouldn't be there.

Hi Budi, We have plenty Ohna from center to the south VN.In HochiMinh also have alot.
If you come here on Lunar new year you will see how it attractive.
I used to have hundred of ohnas that I collected since 2001. Now sold out all most and I am just keeping nearly twenty.
These photos took in my garden.
Qui

Hi Qui,

I remembered seen them in the garden of Huangny. The tree is not impressive at all without flowers, due to the leaves are relatively big.

Budi

Hi Budi. You mean Hoang Ni ? Yeah, the ohna have big leaves so it is only good impress when showing folwer bud in spring.
