Tamarix chinensis flowers, or Chinese tamarisk, burst into bloom around the Gobi Desert in Aksu, Xinjiang, NW China | Xinhua Culture&Travel

A sneak peek at what’s coming this weekend... 👀 Our Tamarisk bonsai—freshly wired and styled, completely bare of foliage—will be one of the stars of the Puget Sound Bonsai Association ’s Winter Silhouette exhibition THIS WEEKEND ONLY. See how every branch, every curve, every artistic choice becomes crystal clear when there are no leaves to hide behind. This is bonsai in its most honest, architectural form. And this is just ONE of the remarkable winter bonsai you’ll see in person. Winter Silhoue

The Tamarisk is /just/ starting to turn golden 💛 for autumn. Tamarix parviflora; Date of origin: c 1986; In training since 1986; Donated by Richard Ota. #tamariskbonsai #bonsai #bonsaiart #thingstodoseattle #seattleweekend #seattlemuseum #federalwaywa #seattlehiddengems #tacomagardens #federalwaywashington #autumnvibes | Pacific Bonsai Museum
