October meeting 2023

October can be an in between month with many trees still in full leaf but slowing down and just showing the hint of autumn tints on some, so general maintaining checking wiring some pruning but really waiting for the leaves to drop so that autumn repotting can take place.

Nevertheless a busy meeting especially with Amelia continuing her Penjing plantings which are proving popular amongst the members, and Gary bringing in a large heavy lump of rock which has some very interesting holes in for ideas on planting it up.

This is a very interesting piece of rock and will need consider selection of what trees are used but hopefully we can follow its development over the coming years ( good luck on Gary bringing it in on club nights then )
