Re: A pygmy for a present
It is a lovely little tree this one.
Fortunate to look and see it when I sip my morning coffee.

Re: A pygmy for a present
That is a beaut tree, Mark! There's one in the latest video I posted from the National exhibition in the US. Owned by Bill Valavanis, and in training for many many years. From all reports it's not an easy tree to refine, so well done you!

Ha! Mel … it is not me that has these skills … I just maintain … it is Mike Simonetto- one of our country’s most talented bonsai folk that got this tree to this point.

Re: A pygmy for a present
Need an update on this one sometime Mark, nine winter photo? I’m with envy over this tree of yours and regularly come back to this thread to enjoy the previous photos.
