Yeah I am pleased all is not lost, about the length of time I can set out. Any thing over a Chinese elm a M, rhaphiophylla. I might be pushing the proverbial,
Up hill in a wheel barrow.
Although I have a few Shohin in training now looking for more them I can handle.

Another page in the saga. I have just finished watering. So while I was doing that getting some weeds ready for accent's for the show. I noticed the growth this is just 7 days after the first pictures.
So my OH!! bugger moment looks like becoming an OOOOH! bugger!. I am one happy little cheesymite.

Here is an update on my little Chinese elm disaster. The shoots have elongated enough to be sorted out. Plus there is one down lower,by the hole.
Which will be left and encouraged to grow thicker and longer.
This is going to be a challenge as Chinese elms are apical dominant.
What is Bonsai without a challenge.

i have kept coming back to this one a few times this after noon to see if anything changes in my eyes...

it hasnt, that new shoot coming from the uro where a previous branch is keeps distracting my eye, it flows then boom, stops dead there where that branch comes out the bottom, i am finding it hard to see this develop it anything from there, could you please enlighten me on how you plan on getting this to work?
dont get me wrong i am not second guessing your skills, just merely wanting to understand the thought process and vission
cheers mate.

beautiful pu, i knew you would have some form of vision, i can see now that it wont be as distracting if at all once the branch develops and ramification is built.
i take it that it will be a reasonably heavy branch to go with the size of the trunk to allow for looks of scale?
and now your figuring out how to draw on the computer you will be entering the virt comps soon ???
