Hawthorn
I've had this collected hawthorn for a couple of years and I'm not that happy with the long straight trunks or the reverse taper at the bottom. I'm thinking of chopping the right trunk back to the lowest branch and removing the left trunk completely and turning it into a hollow, I'm after people's thoughts and ideas, also when is the best time to do the major chops?

Re: Hawthorn
beware that hawthorn heal wounds poorly.
carving will be essential. check out bonsai 4 me for some hawthorn inspiration.

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