Thanks for the link Lisa - they are great trees, complex, dynamic and refined.
Any opinions - are they Bonsai or Penjing? (evil chuckle).
I think we don't put enough complications in our trees, before we put them into bonsai pots. You need a lot of years, a lot of cuts, a lot of fattening, and a lot of changes in direction to get these results. Putting a few bends in with wire and refining the foliage pads just won't do it. Ever. Grow big, cut hard, keep going.
Cats among pigeons, and the like. Roll on Spring.
