41 Casuarina forest

Post by wattynine »

So what do I work on first??
Nebari?, Trunks?, Ramification?, Maybe a new pot?
I am thinking about some trunk chops?
I think the second from the left could move a little more to the centre? That puts the fifth from the right out of position!!??
so many options, any input?

Nice to see that you are styling them in the naturalistic style that is all the rage now! :lol: :lol:

Ha ha Ken and bki, we obviously have the same taste. I posted this in response to Watty's identical post on another forum:

"Watty, this material will never make good bonsai. Best hope you have is to cut back to the nebari, hope they die and plant beans. However, I do like that you are following a 'naturalistic' style for casuarina seedlings.

Also, nice pot. Is it antique Chinese, perhaps made by the master potter Bun-nings?"
