Short & Sweet 12/26/16

Here's what Bob Bailey wrote when he posted this tiny but powerful pine by Koji Hiramatsu: "One of his finest and only 10cms tall." And just in case you happen to live in one of the three countries* that haven't adopted the metric system, that's just under 4"

I’m not sure how we managed to overlook Koji Hiramatsu for so long (in February it will be eight years of approximately 300 posts per year), but we did. Until now.

We’re still recovering from the December frenzy and it’s time to wade though digital piles of year end numbers and obligations, so we’ll keep this short and sweet. Just like Koji’s trees.

Another tiny but powerful Koji tree. This time it's a Shimpaku juniper.

Both photos shown here are from facebook. Bob Bailey posted the pine, and the Shimpaku is from Ficus DM Retusa. And here’s your link to Koji on facebook.

*U.S.A., Liberia & Myanmar. Though it’s not really that simple as the U.S. officially adopted the metric system in 1964, at least in part. It’s just that most of us prefer our charming though undeniably more complex ‘Standard’ system and have chosen to remain blissfully ignorant of the more practical metric system.
