OK guys while it is great to see so much interest in the shohin comp we need to remember to be POLITE to each other and to RESPECT each others opinion. This is Ian's thread and while I am sure he welcomes constructive criticsim and advice some of the previous comments are neither.
Regards Tony

Nothing done on this tree except for the dog removing it from the slab

The only damage done was to the moss and clay perimeter.

Wow Alpine - i believe most apprentices are people but you are amazing to have such a dedicated canine acolyte!

Looking great too by the way!

Well its a day to remember and one to forget :lost: . This Tree has been "withdrawn" it has been sold to a keen young fella wanting a challenge and no doubt he will have more time than i seem to have to continue to refine this Elm :fc: . I hope we all get to see it in the years to come :tu: . Good luck and best wishes to the new owner :| .

I too hope we see this in years to come.
Don't know how I had missed this thread but this composition is a cracker!

Good luck to the tree and new owner!
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
