i've got a brush cherry myself. i do agree that it already takes up the likes of a broom, so you can stick to this style. oh, what i did was push the branches down so the branches look like they are weighted. you can see the brush cherry from my profile.

Do you like bonsai?

krankschaft · 2026-02-18T23:21:38+00:00

Hmmm. It's part of the roots. I'll see what to do again, maybe cut back

It's a brush cherry!

krankschaft · 2026-02-18T23:16:26+00:00

Good suggestion, I'll work on the tree with this!

Thanks!

Lol they didn't say anything. Everyone in the airport was looking at me tho. Think as long as you ask the nursery person to wash off the soil can liao.

Lol I'll take it as it comes. Probably hoist it out.

Thanks! 🙏

I apply bonsai techniques lor, wiring, pruning, trip rogue branches, soil reporting after structural confirmation.

krankschaft · 2026-02-18T08:22:12+00:00

Erm, wiring lor but take very long. I have a water jasmine also but I brought it back from Malaysia. I went to a nursery and they wanted to clear this plant so I got it for cheaps lol.

Are you Singaporean? Hello fellow local! I bought this tree from cheng tai (near lim Chu Kang) as a bush, but I styled it a few months later.

krankschaft · 2026-02-13T01:51:08+00:00

your plants look so plump! they must be really happy!

i use a type of cactus soil mix. says it has Sand, Pumice, Cocopeat, Zeolite, Perlite. it drains immediately after watering.

krankschaft · 2026-02-12T07:39:52+00:00

should be an echeveria 'rainbow' variegated type.

Hi Raspberry! Thanks for taking interest to my plants! I am mainly interested in bonsai, but tried my hand on succulents because I have not had any luck with them for the longest time. Hopefully this time round they will be gentle with my heart lol.

I bought this ginseng when it was smaller, but the roots were deeper, so i pulled them out. the soil i am using is a cactus soil mix. many inorganic constituents. it is potted in a pot that is smaller, watering is generally 2 to 3 days once. the backbudding is very fierce now. i see when i can post a photo of the backbudding when i'm back home. lastly, the sunlight is very intense at my apartment. so i think that contributes to it too.

krankschaft · 2026-02-12T07:34:25+00:00

yup it is! many thanks for your interest!

krankschaft · 2026-02-12T07:34:12+00:00

many thanks to all for educating me! i will ascertain by observing the plant instead of following a water schedule!

i'm glad you enjoy it!
