So turns out moving a big bonsai is pretty difficult…
The photo is a pine that was field grown for 15 or so years in northeast GA. I dug it out this spring in March. Potted up in the Boon mix. The photo was taken today. I didn’t measure the trunk but it should somewhere around 7” at the base which isn’t really visible without removing some soil.
Asking $500 including the pot. It’s in Suwannee GA. PM me if you are interested. If not sold by thanksgiving I will move it to Orlando which is going to be painful…

After clean up should have halfway decent open structure to develop pretty good tree and if trunk that big $500 pretty good deal too😌.

Toss it in the back of a 4' x 8' UHaul trailer. $221 one way rental from Atlanta to Orlando. 6.5 hour drive. Done. Not very painful.

Yeah that’s my plan B. It’s just too hard to move up and down the trailer by myself…

Agreed. I just did it with 80 trees in one 4x8 UHaul trailer. Admittedly, most of them are pretty tiny, but a couple of them are pretty large and one was a pine yamadori collected earlier this year...
