Pretty Fly for a Bonsai Guy
Thanks Greg, you're right on all counts, but the tree left town for Rochester this morning. I'm hoping the accent will be spaced a bit further from the tree, but for the photo, it was all the room I had on the bench. I did trim the accent plant down quite a bit.
The next phase for this tree will be to develop pads and a bit of space between them. I'm also planning to thread graft some roots to improve the nebari. The work necessary will mean a better tree, but will also mean 3-4 years where it won't be showable...which is actually very exciting. By then, maybe it will have a lighter colored pot!
