    Jan, those are all beautiful specimens. You must have been growing these for some time. Caudex on then is wonderful.
    The last two in the green plastic pots look well suited to Bonsai culture as some pictured in Mark Dimmitt & co-authors book.

    Fertilizer seems to of mixed preference, but I am using the one Laura had mentioned. PlantPro Foliage-Pro 9-3-6 (found in most Hydroponics stores).

    Chuy, I can answer your question. What you would do to have one of those? Easy, very easy......
    You need time and patient. By the year 2045 you will have one of those if it lives through all the winters.......

    These slow grow plants need magic......

    Marie........

    p.s. how big are your plants this year Chuy?

    Hi Jan. what exquisite caudexes. Amazing considering they are only 3+ years old. What size pots are the ones in the photos? You certainly have the Midas touch.

    Hi Jan, you have an awesome adenium collection....to die for....most amazing though is your patience while waiting for them to grow so big!

    Thanks for sharing Sensei !!

    Jan, your plants are amazing. I and everyone else would love to see current pics of your children when they come out this spring (which is almost here in Houston).

    What's the circumference, depth and where did you get the large brown pots?

    Great job, Craig
