Masterpiece
So after recent discussion and my love for these types of trees, I decided to start one…. Just bonsai size….this thread is to document its progress. My chosen tree species is Maclura Pomifera, the Osage Orange. Traditionally in my area these trees are white oaks and once my seedlings are large enough I will make a white oak one as well. From the research I’ve done on these, they were traditionally made by bending a sapling over a crutch (to make a sharp 90 degree bend) and tied down with sinew or vines. Once the tree starts growing vertical shoots the end is cut off and you have a marker tree.
