Japanese maple shootsSpring is well underway in the northen hemisphere. My bonsai tree season as started and im almost finish reppoting the trees that needed some cleanup of the roots and a new pot. I also decided to take some cuttings of a few of my 4 years old larix laricina seedlings. These will be for a future bonsai group planting (Yose-ue) im hoping to do in a few years with the parent trees. I also taken a few cuttings of a Carpinus Koreana bonsai tree I now own for a few years.

One the tree seeds side of things, nothing much did really happenned. We are stock for many of the species and we are still looking to find a few gems of tree seeds.

As for the vegetable garden, Im planning on doing the same as usual, but this year, I will grow hot peppers. I boutgh 5 types of hot peppers, including the evil hot orange habanero. One surprise I hope to see this year are the "fooled you" jalapeno. They are suppose to be jalapeno looking peppers but without any heat. These could be well in a pickled jar recipe. I also got some Big Bomb hot peppers. The common element of all these species of hot pepper is "Early". I chose types of pepper that were early producer. The summer is not quite long enough to grow peppers from seeds if you dont start your plants indoor before the growing season. With early pepper seeds, I should be good to produce some mature plants before the end of the summer. I just planted some of those seeds last weekend, and have allready some a few green tips emerging from the soil.

This year will be a great year I believe as it cannot be worse for our bonsai tree then all the rain we got last summer, at least in our part of the world. Take care of your bonsai tree and have.
