Borya constricta Churchill

Borya constricta Churchill
One of natures true native Bonsai's. This is all over the huge granite outcrops i take photos on. at the moment the plant is turning green and the moss also its winter its raining and the plant comes to life. in summer its a bright orange "Autumn like" in hibernation till the rains come next winter. lives just as you see it in that much or less soil as this has as it straight off the rock onto this Granite plate. no fertiliser on added water this plant will live apart from the rest like it was living on the rock to live the same seasons. the plant is no more than 40mm high has white flowers in winter..... this is a big learning curve. look at the first two photos. PIP no 2

It would be interesting to know just how many years old these already are no way of knowing at all.

Andy Just as a note i looked at the plants how can i Gage the age of them. " If "each indent left on the small trunk is a years growth the longest to 30. I think this may prove to be well underestimating the age of these plants i think it will be closer to 3 or 4 times that age. only time can tell.
