New tree! I got this zelkova from a local bonsai-enthousiast. He was excited to see young people (like me) enjoying this hobby
I think it's a good start, despite a couple of flaws, and very elegant as well! He repotted it a couple of weeks ago, but he didn't secure it (hence the rock...) I've already threaded a wire through the drainiage holes and secured it.
A little of the top...
The first branch on the main trunk is a little awkward... It's a bit close the the fork above. And points straight towards the viewer (if I choose this side as a front)
The backside doesn't have a lot of branches. Apex is a little crowded, so I'll probably have to prune it harder next year!
He also gave me a couple of accent plants! Does anyone know what this is? Looks like some kind of orchid...
I'm so excited about this tree! I'm looking forward to developing it And as usual, tips are appreciated!
