The pleasures of digs and this is a result. Only a couple of years out of the scrub and it may have a future. Sheep grazed initial training program in operation!

Weird in a good way. Looks like a rhino with a mohawk. 8-)

I like it now and look forward to what it may become.
Tending bonsai teaches me patience.

I missed to opportunity to give this its "late autumn tidy up" so I will wait until the August repot and wire but rectify the straight lines in the branches. On small bonsai I prefer the wilder looking branch structure.
Those sheep are difficult to train Gavin.
