How's it going, Bonsai Buds. This episode of Little Things, Evan speaks with Carmen about her departure from the Crataegus garden and her graduation from Michael Hagedorn's apprenticeship. This is a very touching and personal episode showcasing the dreams and worries of a fresh bonsai professional stepping out on their own. A career in bonsai does not have a direction path or obvious ways to success but the Little Things believe in Carmen Leskoviansky's success! We believe she has the skills and knowledge to continue to flourish and grow in the ever evolving North American bonsai scene.
