Close up of another Harry Harrington Privet bonsai. Here's Harry's caption: "Another job for the new year has been carving and staining an old Privet bonsai of mine. Part of the original live vein had died back over the years, leaving behind a blank wall of deadwood behind, so last week I took out the Makita and Dremels and added some interest! Bonsai pot by none other than Mr Victor Harris of Erin Pottery."
We’ve been featuring Harry Harrington’s bonsai a lot lately. The North American addition of his book The Foundations of Bonsai is due in our warehouse any day now, so our motivation is high. But lest you get the the wrong impression, I just counted 24 Bark posts featuring Harry’s bonsai, going all the way back to March 2009. Most of them long before our North American edition of Foundations was even a dream…
It's a good time to pre-order The Foundations of Bonsai with our 25% off Book Sale (see below).
Before and after. A dramatic example of an impressive result from a humble start. Here's Harry's caption: "My Ligustrum ovalifolium/Privet Bonsai, 2009 to 2017. Originally collected in west London by Francis Consunji-Chan, the tree has come along way in the past 8 years! Height 14"/34cm, 5"/12.5cm trunk diameter. Bonsai pot by Victor Harris of Erin Pottery."
