    Gallery of some really crappy trees

    Keep it going Vance. It's the sign of a man to take hits and keep on going. And it's the sign of a little boy to keep spewing venom in ignorance. Loose lips, sink ships. And to quote something from the Bible, Matthew 7:5 "You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will...

    New Willow Leaf Ficus

    BNut is right, airlayers would leave you with three trees. Cutting back to where you're talking about would leave you with a sweet little tree. I would advise you not to repot at the same time or at least not as aggressive as the trunk chop. I aggressively cut mine and it had severe dieback and...

    Cork bark elm from Evergreengardenworks

    That tree is HUGE. I've never seen stuff like that on their website. I thought he only sold smaller stuff. Did you just email him directly for that or am I missing something? Good luck with it. Keep us posted. Have a great weekend!!! Sam

    Peculiar Vendor

    Wow, I've never been on Andy's website before. He's got some nice stuff. I don't really care much for pines personally but there is some great potential there. Does anyone else have any other sources like this? It's great to hear you guys recommend him too. Have a great weekend!!! Sam

    Peculiar Vendor

    This is a most helpful thread. I wish there was more like this or maybe there are and I just haven't really looked. If nurseries and potters knew that we talk to one another about vendors they'd be more willing to be more professional. It's really important because we are part of the customer...

    Rain tree and Fig Tree suggestions?

    I second his opinion. Deciding on how big you want the tree will definitely tighten your options. I think raintrees are some of the best species for bonsai. You could do a Pierneef style tree or umbrella style tree, or you could do a tree like Budi Sulistyo did, which is kind of like an oak...

    Thanks Jason. Erik has a small tree on his website? I hadn't seen it yet. Do you have a link to it? I forgot to mention this little guy is only 4 inches tall. Have a great week!!! Sam

    Little Brazilian Raintree Pierneef

    I got this little guy at Wigert's nursery. Here are some progression pics. I plan to do a Pierneef style with it. This thing grows like a weed. It's quickly become one of my favorite trees. Pictures are as I bought it, Front, Rear and Dorothy's virtual. Thank you again Dorothy for making...

    Hey Robert, I received the book yesterday afternoon. I'll write my review on it a little bit later, but based on what I saw last night, I was very impressed. I'm honestly not just saying this because I respect you as an artist and a visionary, but because that's exactly how I felt. THANK YOU...

    Thank you for sending out the book Robert. I can't wait to save some money and order "Vision of my Soul". I will most definitely let you know what I think of it, although I think I will really REALLY enjoy it. Thank you also for your explanation to Smoke. I thought the piece of deadwood at...
