Hinpeter. There was a thread not long ago on the dwarf version of this agonis flexuosa nana. They would make a cracking bonsai in my opinion but I haven't had a go yet. I do have a full size one in the front garden that needs a trim

They make a great bonsai, particularly the thin leafed form like the one pictured. There is a quality example in the national arboretum and Dave at Bonsai World has a cracker (will try and post a a pic soon). They back shoot like crazy, bark-up nicely, dont mind being bent hard etc....
