I just bought this Redwood yamadori stump from Zack and Bob Shimon of Mendocino Coast Bonsai at the REBS annual show yesterday. I've been wanting a Redwood since I started doing bonsai almost 10 years ago. Redwoods are literally growing in my backyard and I graduated from Humboldt State University which is famous for its redwood trees (among other things if you know what I'm saying
) so I have a strong personal connection to this species. Anyway I decided it was finally time to pull the trigger and drop the $$$ necessary for some decent stock. The tree stands a little under a foot tall, has a 4 1/2 inch base and has lots of natural deadwood on it. I'm very excited about this trees future and am looking forward to its inevitable evolution.
The show itself provided me with loads of inspiration and more than a little self-loathing of my own trees.
Does anyone have any advice, tips, styling ideas, critiques, etc.?
