Hello.
Went to Canberra the other week, and purchased my first Shohin trees from Leigh Taafe.
Both trees are in P. K. pots.
So as you do when you get something new, you would like others to see them as well.
So here are some photo's I took, just mucking around with the camera.
Bonappetit..

1st tree corky or seiju elm
2nd tree definitely a Zelkova serrata, Japanese grey bark elm.
By the way the light green smooth glaze PK pot is a beauty. I have one but Pat can't remember making that glaze.

Beautiful trees!
The first tree's pot is absolutely cute as a button too!
Nice one and thanks for sharing.

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
