But considerably less than the $300 or so that usually seems to be the entry point for one.
Are we in Korea??? They are pretty hard to find to be honest.
Quite a bit of genetic variation I guess. One of mine is from Bill and its the most 'orange' blooming one I have.
That is really nice. Love the leaves on that.
Really...? Thats pretty interesting.....they are a stunning tree though! Minenis just starting to flower....popped one flower today
I stopped propagating it because I can't sell them!
They're a dwarf version - smaller flowers and leaves, smaller internodes. Mine has better colour than any garden centre variety I've seen.
That makes sens @TomB . If you ever have cuttings that you would be willing to send across, let me know.
the one I have is tiny, and I'm trying to propagate cuttings from it for myself! Ask me again in a couple of years.
About 20 years ago they were everywhere. Now all the big nurseries have stopped propagating them because they didn't feel there was any demand - and now they are nowhere to be found!
I must agree and you make a valid point.....Hornbeam and Maple are not easy to find in Korea any more.they used to be very popular..good ones anyway and their price is pretty reasonable compared to Europe or the States. The trend is toward flowering and fruit bearing trees here. Slowly trying to stock pile some good material.It's just a question of supply and demand. In a couple of years, with the rate with which people are propagating them, the price will be as low as standard quince. There are plenty of bargains to be had in US bonsai, but specialty cultivars without broad market appeal will always be a little pricey.
Try finding a variegated Chinese elm
I just found one in my greenhouse
lol a buddy of mine has a couple and he's been propagating them for the last year or so.Try to look at this thread if you haven't seen it, some cheap Ch. speciosa right from Enger. The flowers are similar to Chojubai, and the dwarf leaves too...I'll see how the bark will develop.That makes sens @TomB . If you ever have cuttings that you would be willing to send across, let me know.
