I bought this tree in Nov 2015 off a guy who was reducing his bonsai collection. I saw some potential in it as it got a good start and I knew I could take it further.
Sorry for some of the bad images
He got the material in June 2009
The big problem with the tree was the large wound on the front.
He had cut back some of the thick branches and started to rebuild a branch structure
He had planned to try and get this area to close up.
By 2011 there was some nice twiggy growth happening on the tree but the wound was still not growing closed properly.
By Oct 2012 one of the branches from the tree was being used to try and fuse and bridge up the wound
