If I ever let this grow....it wouldn't be slow growing....

It took a bad hit due to laziness and Unsifted oil dry last year.

With only half the roots left...
I am determined to make this something someday. It has a sentimental value for me.

First potentially flowering dig...
It's still alive!
It's gangster as Hell.
If given 50 years or could look better than Walter's....etc. Etc.20160421_093025.jpg

It might end up being from a cutting...
Or a layer....
Or this entire piece of dookie itself....

But I will enjoy these flowers one day.

They are pretty vigorous, the Wife ordered two small ones for the side of the house like a foot tall and I told her I did not know she was going to do the hedge trimming this year and thanked her :p

Forsythia is fun, small ones can flower. If not a "bonsai", it's a real pleasure to see one of the first flowers in the season (2014):

If you're interested in trying this species, Reiners bonsai blog is a must. It's in German, but the pictures are self-explanatory, and you can use an online translator if you want more details.

PS: "Fumer tue lentement" = "Smoking slowly kills". No worries, I'm not in a hurry.
 
Keep on trucking.Yo da man!You goin ta bury us all when you get the space thing goin!

You are Probly right.....

But the only thing that will confirm is...
I am a hoarder!

I wondered how he did it so well. Being a foreigner and all. Our way south of the border brother.:)
Actually neither is from Earth (neither am I, but I am from entirely another part of the universe; it is difficult for me to understand either one of them :D).

Or...just the tree!

damn... any idea why? I found it odd that my 4 small ones were chopped, stuck in a pot, and neglected last year and somehow are now showing foliage. Winter was odd here as I lost some things that normally do fine while others that always do good kicked hardcore.
