Turning that isn't all bad.
Some friends of mine got together and bought this integrifolia from ray's for my birthday. sorry no size comparison. but the base of the tree is about 80-90 mm just above the root flare.
I'm stoked. enough said.

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

Great stock Ces!
Here is a link to Grant Bowie's thread on B. integrifolia as Bonsai just in case you haven't read it. Looking forward to seeing it develop.
