(SELL) Tim's Stump Sale Prunus/Oak/ J-Maple (MELB)
I have a few rough stock stumps laying around that i wouldn't mind parting with covering Prunus, Oak and Japanese Maple.
All purchased over the years for their future bonsai potential at the forefront of my mind. There are lots of stumps in the world, but picking the ones with bonsai potential is the key.
Prices are just what i paid for them, not looking to profiteer off the community, just move some excess stock on that i'm no longer interested in growing.
Pick up only in Bayside Melbourne.
#1. Plum with future windswept potential. Purchased from Moongate about a year ago i chopped the top off and started training the lower branch for a windswept penjing type of style. Really anything could be done with it as it buds freely from dormant buds on the trunk. $200
Plum #2. A larger stump of a purple leaf plum also from Moongate picked up at the same time. More conventional style just needing some more guidance to bring out the future best in it. $250
'
Prunus sp. Not sure exactly which Prunus this is, but classic white flower basically. Half way undecided if this is a leaning cascade style or an upright, either way a good tree in the making $450
Turkey Oak. Beautiful crackly old bark on this one with a powerful base which is what drew me to it. Up to you if you want to keep it as it is and develop the top, or use one of the lower dormant buds to grow out and really take advantage of the power in the base. $490
Finally a Japanese Maple, i'd love to say it's sango kaku but i can't be sure. Large twin trunk stump, i've just cleared out this spring's unnecessary shoots so it looks a little bare compared to normal. I left a big stub on the main trunk line and wired up the new leader that is now in position and the stub is dying back nicely to meet the main trunk chop point (only one big scar rather than multiple to worry about. My hand as size reference, you could keep it as it is, or air layer below the trunks for a more radial set of roots. Your choice! $550.

If I wasn’t down sizing Tim the oak would be mine.
The bark on that Oak… what a great starters. Surprised it hasn’t been snapped up.
Cheers

Ta! Yep you don't see Oak with bark like that too often. I saw another oak stump at Tien's with no taper or movement, just old bark asking $1,000 so Mine's a decent pick up I reckon.
They will all go to club nights and sale days over the next few months anyway so no harm if they don't sell on here

Going to throw this in here, Blue Cedar now happily growing again after a shock in spring coming out of the pot it was in. I've just turned the main trunkline into one massive jin for now, up to you what you want to do with it in the future but i don't plan to continue it particularly.
Height and width of base/ trunk is shown in the photos below $350

Re: (SELL) Tim's Stump Sale Prunus/Oak/ J-Maple (MELB)
Fair warning, from January onwards this and the other material will be going to club nights/ shows etc for sale, so if you are sitting on the fence on anything, feel free to PM me. The christmas special pricing remains.
Some really great futures in these trees, so if you're thinking about making the step up from younger material or looking for some workshop stuff then look no further. I'm surprised a few of these haven't sold like the Oak and the Blue Cedar. Plums will go like hotcakes as soon as they start flowering too.

Re: (SELL) Tim's Stump Sale Prunus/Oak/ J-Maple (MELB)
Okay i really need to get these moved on as i'm winding back my bonsai growing to just keep the main specimen trees in the shadehouse, as i expand my actual garden.
I have 2 more plums as well that i will post up shortly that i was planning on hanging on to, but now it's just time to make space.
So i'm open to offers on the remaining stumps; that is Plum 2, the Japanese Maple and the blue cedar. No postage, pick up only or possibly local (SE/ Bayside Melbourne) drop off.
