I don't think I have posted this one before??
I took cuttings over three 10 years to get the different sizes. They are all the same clone.
After a long time it's starting to come together. Much patience required!

That was just for the smaller ones you understand

They say bonsai is an old man's pastime. I say it's a young man's/woman's game.

Agree, definitely a young person’s game. The younger the better to develop good trees from scratch.
Even the pots are too heavy these days and their empty!!!
Getting rid of all my large pots, not even sure what I was thinking with a few of them. Obviously got during my younger foolish days
Cheers

Love it. How often do you have to repot it?

every two years. They are strong growers unlike the Asian ones.
