Far out! Monstrous! I want one! Where did something like this come from? Grown as Bonsai or dug from garden?

I've seen it and it is truly a monster. I have no idea how Hanh would have loaded it onto the back of his ute. :)

I did not know that Mr. Hanh actually attends meetings :)

If it indeed was Mr. Hanh then it is not the biggest one that he has. Last year, he has a massive Japanese maple trunk at the back of his garden.

I did promise the owner that I would not name him.
So...
When I post photos I usually try to avoid names and where possible do not put the owners faces in the same photos.

Just a reminder that some people have security issues, if we are aware of this we can enjoy these trees without regrets.
I imagine this one living on the roof :lol:
