Lilacs (Syringa Vulgaris)

I didn't get any seeds for this, but the Wisteria got my thinking about the potential... My parents have a beautifully-scented tree growing in their garden that can afford to lose a branch or two - a perfect specimen for my first try at air-layering... Need to get some moss first though... Pictures I've found of Bonsai look rather appealing...

Don't they look great?

White Chinese Wisteria (Wisteria Sinensis Alba)

After a bit of research I'm going to have to think quite deeply about this one... Apparently it doesn't flower for around 10 years after planting, so should be able to get the trunk and branches nicely developed over that time. Thinking of a few interesting, if somewhat unconventional styles for this - Tree around rock (rather than root-over-rock, that could produce some stunning views when flowering...

Nice chunky seeds...

Only needed a 2 hour soak so planted these out quite early yesterday...

The flowers look amazing, but i guess the tree would have to be rather large to allow a heavy bloom...

It will take many years before anything flower-like is seen...
