| Unfortunately, JR cannot post here due to technical difficulties. He picked up this thread on NI and drew a very interesting post from P. Waddington. Raises one's perception of Yamabuki.
About 14 months ago I had a disaster in my old pond from a hose left running by an irrigation repair crew. I lost my yamabuki. For the first time since 1978, I've not got one. I put in a special request to Mat McCann for a female. This Fall I am hoping to have a nisai among his harvest. Perhaps in another 9 months or so, there will be one in my pond again. I think every koi pond should have one. They draw much attention and in the process make all the gosanke seem just a bit more special. |
