Finally the photo's of the new years' bonsai thing at Teunis Jan Klein's Deshima Bonsai have been posted online! It was the first show in which I showed stuff (open podium ftw!), so I was really excited and forgot to take pics myself...
Had to wait a week but the photos are worth it!
This is the hornbeam with a ribes rubrum on agate for accent. Much better now!
The guy wire between the trunks is removed and the small trunk will be pulled a little more to the left. The apexes will have to get a little smaller, but I ran out of time for the show, so this spring through the mower it goes again! The small trunks are going to be sacrificed when thickened up, so no multitrunk I think.
Opinions yes please!
I also got a few tips on the elm, with the most important one being that nebari doesn't always determines front. It will be getting a bit smaller next growing season. I hope the airy feel remains.
You have some good friends there Maarten. You should never move from where you are now!
