Just a small Satsuki Azalea with a small flower. Rukizon.

The tree is just flowering now and stands 16cm or 6inches from bottom of Tokoname pot to the top flower.

One branch removed and cut back to nothing.

Now smaller and more compact. it may not flower this year but that is unimportant in the long term.

Beautiful colours Grant (Tree and Pot).
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
