How about crape myrtle?
As you can see, I brought its branch down quite a bit last year.

Look at its only flower. Weird!

2nd crabapple.
Some time we can not explain thing in the world! Incidentally, this tree also has only one fruit left and one flower at this time of the year!

Bonhe, thanks for sharing your winter show with us, your crabs and elm are looking good. I also like your first small crape myrtle, it's a whimsical looking tree.

Nice Poms, and deadwood.
If you want to get rid of the text on your thumbnails, after you attach them, click on the icon that says thumbnail, and the text will not appear on your post thumbnails.

But I guess that you figured that out while I was making this post, I see now!
Looks like the texts are from posts made on the old Bnut, so I'm wrong on both counts.

Love the bud shots.

Beautiful! But don't stop carving yet. I would reduce the deadwood a little bit more to give the trunk a better taper. It is still too bulky on the top portion. :)
Yes, I am planning to carving more on the upper third of the trunk.

Good luck!

And find yourself a cool avatar will you? Get with the program :). May I suggest finding a cool netsuke, something that resembles you, and use it for an avatar.

I have a mood to submit some of my trees today! :D
Those are large unfinished specimens! Still have a lot of works to be done!
The last one is crape myrtle. Others are pomegranate.
Bonhe
Good stuff! I need to add a big pomegranate to my collection someday.
