San Diego Bonsai Club Blog

Thursday, October 27, 2005

Welcome to the San Diego Bonsai Club blog!

My name is Graham Hellewell and I am the webmaster for the San Diego Bonsai Club web site. I usually receive quite a few email messages via the web site from people asking general questions about bonsai. Usually I can answer any questions on my own. However, there are times when I seek out other club members for assistance and expertise. It occurred to me today that a blog would be the perfect way to communicate with people who might have questions or who just want to talk about bonsai.

In addition, I think this blog will provide a useful tool for club members who want to share some piece of news with the group. Of course, people will need to visit this blog web site in order to read these news items. Hopefully, at least some club members will find this a useful tool for communication with other members of the club. Are you interested in posting to this blog? Just let me know! After doing so, I will send you an invitation with further directions about how to participate in this blog.

This blog could turn out to be quite fun. Imagine someone posting something about the most amazing tree that they saw the other day. Please feel free to contact me if you have any comments or questions about this site or the San Diego Bonsai Club. Thanks!

  • I spoke with 'lyn and Marty today and they are definitely interested in participating. Both were interested in getting bonsai enthusiates from all over to participate. This is a wonderful way of asking questions and getting several points of view.

  • I'll talk up the blog at the next meeting. In fact, when I'm up at the convention this weekend I'll let people know our club has a blog going.

    Just to start off the questions: How do crabapple trees do in San Diego? Do they need any special care? FUll sun OK?

  • Jon,

    Good question about crabapples. However, please post this as a new entry rather than a comment to my original posting. The discussion deserves to have it's own "thread" for people to comment on.
