[Wanted] WTB Japanese Maple (VIC)

Post by Nishiken »

G’day folks. Looking to purchase an established JM in any size. Have a decent budget of $2000. I’ve done a nursery crawl of what I assume to be everything in VIC but I’m looking to see if I can get anything here.

Thanks :tu:

I have one I’d be willing to part with and leave you with a fair bit of change. I’d describe it as somewhat literati, ie thin trunk, multi apex, more like a tree in nature than a ‘bonsai’ look. Happy to send photos if it sounds like something you’re interested in

Found a photo from the winter silhouette comp, it's not in that pot anymore, just a regular chinese pot that's deeper to make caring for it easier

You guys better come to Tim’s place and have a look at his JPM collection with really good price; worth every cent IMO. Took me more than 2 hrs drive but very happy with the deal. Really nice guy, good luck with sale, Tim!

Very kind of you to say that, it was great to meet you and show you my extremely humble and dwindling collection! and thanks for making the very long drive for your tree too :tu:

FYI is someone is interested, the JM above is still available :whistle:
