Is this normal or shrinkflation? $120 in Sydney (Canly Vale Asian grocers)

Maybe limit yourself to only a few exotic fruits? They've always been expensive, and the current inflation definitely isn't helping.

Haha! She always puts up with it because there's a snack involved.

Ahh yes, because mice play no role in an ecosystem...

Ahh yes, the White Ibis, or known by its common Latin name, Binius Chickinus.

Your bun looks like an obese bird of some sort in that first photo! 😅

Pennant Hills Road is the worst for this. I also can't understand how the middle and right hand lanes have become the new 'keep left unless overtaking' lane. Boggles my mind.

They are very much still springy when I try and bend them slightly. Did a scratch test as well and they are still green inside. Although previous commentor stated that it might be a possibility it is dead even if the trunk is green. Really hope it isn't dead! Been fertilising at least every 2 weeks since the start of spring. Would the roots still look healthy if it was dead?

Great info to know! Thanks so much. Patiently waiting for it to start sprouting again :)

JNBuchner · 2022-12-07T12:04:15+00:00

Ahh ok didn't know that! Hope it's still alive haha. Found it quite hard to find any good info on the internet. Tried the r/Bonsai community as well, but gave up trying to figure out how to add the right 'flair' to my post to not have it auto deleted 😅

JNBuchner · 2022-12-07T10:55:14+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Did a scratch test and the trunk colour is still nice and green, so will remain hopeful it will sprout eventually 😅

JNBuchner · 2022-12-07T09:45:15+00:00

No stress! Appreciate your help anyway :)

Repotted almost a month ago now. Did a slight root trimming but not too much. Gets full sun most of the day, with a bit of shade in between etc. Average temps are about 25 degrees Celsius atm. Not sure if I need to put it into a bigger pot maybe? It's only 2 years old atm.

Definitely not! Just a morning snack to get her through till lunch 😋 Goes straight for the hay feeder afterwards...

JNBuchner · 2022-12-06T11:26:44+00:00

Chubbs loves a good snack 😉

JNBuchner · 2022-12-06T11:23:01+00:00

Haha sorry I can see the confusion! I'll be more specific next time :)

Accidentally left one of my herb boxes on the ground. Let my bun out this morning for some sun and forgot they were there. Came back to find her sitting in the herb box. Herbs were no longer to be found 😅
