    11th floor Common Juniper

    Both look nice, I like how you saved it when the first one had a die off. Anyway, communis are bastards, they might as well just one day decide and half will die. Strange plants...

    European Hornbeam-Old Stumpy

    I like it. I also wouldn't go so low with the chop, but then again I have no quality bonsais. :) Do you find hornbeam hardy species? I tried to collect 2 as yamadori but none survived :( No idea why...

    Bonsai newbie with 3 trees!

    Hi MGW. Since you're from UK, I would advise you to browse through Harrys site: http://www.bonsai4me.com/ It has so many information and is directly linked to your climate. It has a beginners section and advanced articles. Good luck!

    Can you help with pummice advice please?

    For trees in development (all my trees that is) I use 100% pumice. It works well. In summer you might have to water a bit more, depends on microclimate. Pumice I use are sizes 3-6mm.

    Collecting on Canada's West Coast

    Nice, a 6 year update, cheers for you to remember this thread and post fresh pics. I would put some bend into lower half of the trunk so the tree would get a bit smaller and more interesting. Anyway nice find, and congrats on keeping it alive.

    Ulmus (semi cascade)

    Hmm. No replies yet. This was some big trunk chop. The transition is not that smooth. What's your plan for future development?

    Arilayering Japanese Maple - FAILED

    OK, thanks for you're insight and kind words. I'm just having trouble imagining that there is something under this part and that this on picture is not the wood part but xylem.

    Arilayering Japanese Maple - FAILED

    I have no idea what cultivar it is... It's been in the garden for some time, it's not mine, it's my realtives but I doubt they know what cultivar they bought. So here, I opened the package and took a few (not so good) pictures:

    Arilayering Japanese Maple - FAILED

    Thanks @barrosinc for the picture. I've seen all the pics and I know the theory (not all as it seems), but when it comes to being practical... :) That's not me :p I'll open the device tomorrow if there's nothing left to lose now.. :/

    Arilayering Japanese Maple - FAILED

    That is possible, since when I was making the airlayer I had a feeling that I can't go too deep when removing layers of bark, so I removed everything up to the point when only the realy hard wood remained.

    Arilayering Japanese Maple - FAILED

    I tried airlayering a small JM branch. I put the sphagnum around the cut and wraped it with plastic foil. The branch, as seen on the picture, died or at least all the leaves dried out. What went wrong?

    Why do these seem all burned up? Is this not aluminium wire?

    Drunk Dragon to get a new home

    It's a very nicely done bonsai. I, as oppose to most opinions here, would love to see it in the pot you were intending to plant it in.

    Repotting - you think you've had a hard time?

    It interesting how this pot opens up to make it easier to repot the tree... :P Sorry, had to, I hope it was not a very valuable pot. Thanks for taking so much photos, even though you had a ton of work.
