After seeing one of the members Banksia’s in the 2002 native show I went looking for some material I could work with. I picked up this Banksia at a local nursery as stock. Most of the base shaping was achieved by the cut and grow method. It was repotted three times before making it into a Bonsai pot.
Last year I reshaped it and potted it into this current pot by PK. After the re-pot the right branch died back and has taken some time to rejuvenate. This has put the right side development a season behind the left.
