I've found that if I get interested in something (like detailing) I go all out no matter what, and this has led me to pursue a number of diverse and expensive hobbies (which my wife LOVES :D ) in my lifetime. Here's my list, what are yours?

1. Guitar - Ibanez Destroyer through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier
2. Video Games - PS2, PC, Xbox 360, PSP
3. Bicycling - Airborne Blackbird and Specialized FSR Stumpjumper
4. Muscle Car Restoration - 1965 Chevelle (I'll post some pics when I get it
back from the shop)
5. Snowboarding - I live in the hottest, flattest state for this one!
6. Comic Books - My secondary retirement plan? ;)
7. Motorcycles - 2002 Honda Shadow VLX Deluxe
8. Tabletop Miniature Wargaming (Warhammer, etc)

Just listed some details to see if I had anything in common with any of you!

I started around 85 when I lived in Manhattan. I moved to California so gave away all my trees (quarantine issues). Picked it up again and have an assortment of outdoor trees. Some have been started from cuttings and some from purchased stock. I don't reall buy finished trees. I can post some pics of a few a little later.
I also collect japanese maples too and have 30+ in pots and the landscape.
 
Detailing is my biggest hobby or maybe eating hard to say. :D

4. Old tractors (Got my John Deere M that I am restoring)
