Issue 73 - July 2013 - Federation of British Bonsai Societies

Familiar sound of summer
Even after flowering, dwarf Rhododendron varieties
are good subjects for display- example above.
Bright shiny foliage portrays health and vitality on
well cared for examples. Deep pots and plenty of
moisture will prove beneficial. Here, at the height of
summer, a pair of rapidly diving swallows completes
the scene in a vast cloudless sky. A ‘closed’
arrangement such as this (when only two items face
one-another), works well in a small space.
Dwarf Rhododendron var. ‘Blue Mist’ 42cm.
Pot- Japan.
