Very nice Gerard.

Was this just picked up at the big green shed or something? - I'm only guessing by the tag that it wasn't anywhere Bonsai related.

If that's the case I'll be heading down to the one near me!

nebari was sorted when I repotted a year ago. I am confident it will be very good. I will repot again soon.

Just one comment. Im not sure if that is the right pot for this tree. The bright Blue competes with teh flowers I think. Perhaps a cream/white pot?
Just an opinion though. Still a a lovely tree.
