Hi Guys,
I collected what I thought must have been a dead Neem tree as it had no leaves at the time. It had been cut back numerous time on the side of a path and to my surprise after I potted it it has sprung to life so I am now wondering what I should do with it. As you can see from the pictures it has been quite badly cut up and also attacked by termites at one stage but I love the character of the plant so want to turn it into a nice bonsai and am looking for any advise on how to get there as I am new to this. Seems like every couple of days some new growth start to appear on the trunk like the one near the base of the tree.
