Yes, the name is funny, but I can assure you from his work that this guy ain't no ordinary eijit!
I personally am something of a newbie when it comes to bonsai and I'm also somewhat intimidated by the stying process so I've decided to use this post - and those in the forseeable future to focus on what I've seen in other blogs and articles - usually featuring the work of bonsai growers/artists/stylists ( hey what are they called anyway) whose work I admire. It also helps if I like their writing too!

One of the problems with looking at bonsai sites from around the world is that I often cannot really relate well when they work with material this will simply never be available to me. Bonsai growers are held captive to a certain degree by their location. So this series on restyling a larch bonsai works for me because it is a tree I can grow too.
Here's a quick post that only has three pictures in it, but I really like these trees because to be they're really well styled but not over styled as you'll see quite frequently. take a look
Here's a great post from Bonsai Eijit where he identifies favorite posts from 2012
I'm not a great stylist, but I'm a pretty good grower and my personal passion is to find the easiest bonsai trees and material so that more people can confidently approach this great hobby, without inevitably killing their first trees Growing beginner Bonsai
That's it for this week.
