Wisteria bonsai


Isn't that gorgeous?

I've always loved wisteria for the beautiful name, flowers, leaves, and delicate woody vines.

A few months ago, L and I went to Wild Animal Park. I saw the wisteria seedpods hanging in the water-wise garden. When I went back with G and her cousin, most of the pods were gone. My brother finally found one high up and jumped to get it for me.

I think I'm going to try to sprout the seeds, plant and train them into bonsai plants.

I read that it takes ten years for wisteria to flower. I think they are a good symbol for where my life is going. Hopefully, my efforts will come to fruition in ten years as well.
