Thanks for posting the photos. The trunk on the rugged chinese elm on the BSV website is magnificent.

Your "mini JBP" was absolutely cute as a button and about 1/3rd of the size I envisaged!
What an incredible little specimen!

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