I am moving at the end of the year, and would like to offload some of my pre-bonsai. I would just give them away but I have spent 2-3 years of effort, money and care on some of them, so I would like to make at least that back. I would prefer to have them picked up or I can drop them off in the metro Atlanta area. Could you estimate how much I can reasonably ask for these trees?
1. Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinensis): Dug from a friend's yard on April 2, 2017. 2 seasons of growth in a black tub with porous bonsai mix. It has an excellent 13-inch wide nebari and a completely hollow perfect uro. The highest shoot is located 12 inches or so from the soil. It already has good primary branching and some secondary branching. What it needs soon is for the deadwood to be carved down and for the uro to be preserved so that the dead wood around it does not rot. It is in good health, but whiteflies and aphids need to be treated for in summer. Pictures attached. All photos taken in Oct 2018, but I have pictures from when it was dug up in 2017.
