I found this guy cheap in the clearance area at walmart - not surprising since he looks like a big deformed potato and had no label of any kind. So sad and ugly looking I had to bring him home.
It actually seems pretty healthy, though - nice and solid in the pot even though I know its roots won't last long in that muddy potting soil it's in.
I'm thinking I should probably allow it to dry out before repotting, though. I'm going to poke some holes in its pot and shelter it from rain and hopefully it will dry out pretty quickly.
Fiinally, I know these aren't really bonsai, but they are bonsai-ish and I've seen some very impressive ones grown using some bonsai techniques.
