Boabab Bonsai in Honour Of My Gorgeous New-Born Son!

Hey everyone, my how time flies. On the 13th February 2020 I was blessed with a gorgeous happy healthy, amazing child, a pretty little baby boy. I am not married and he was not planned but I truly couldn't imagine life without him, what an incredible blessing he truly is!

When I knew we were having a child I thought I would do something really special in his honour and so, I germinated some Boabab seeds to make into Bonsai Tree's and once he is old enough gift them to him.

This particular Tree germinated the closest to his birthday and so this will be his one day. It really is doing really well, It is my first time growing a bonsai Tree's and doing really well if I might say so myself!

Adansonia is a genus of deciduous trees known as baobabs. They are found in arid regions of Madagascar, mainland Africa, Arabia, and Australia. The generic name honours Michel Adanson, the French naturalist and explorer who described Adansonia digitata.[2] The baobab is also known as the "upside down tree", a name that originates from several myths.[3]

In the early 21st century, baobabs in southern Africa began to die off rapidly from a cause yet to be determined. Scientists believe it is unlikely that disease or pests were able to kill many trees so rapidly, and some speculated that the die-off was a result of dehydration from global warming.[4][

Naturally the Tree's above featured in wikipedia are enormous (Africa's biggest Tree) and mine a mere shadow, but that is how bonsai's roll and the sentimental value profound, significant and larger than any Big Boabab ;)

And here we have the gorgeous little man in question!

I love you my gorgeous, precious, beautiful child, forever and always xx

I trust you have an amazing Thursday and super cool weekend.

Cheer$;)
