2 more premna I have going.
This tree started out with 3 cascading trunks and as it developed some got chopped and one dieback a bit. I am having a lot of fun with these faster growing species putting in twists and kinks to see how the grow out.

This little ROR Premna has been going for a few years and also started as a cutting. Still not sure I know which the front and deciding if I should chop it back a bit.

I'm afraid I don't have any really tiny trees as I used to work 12hour days/nightshifts and also was called in too so they wouldn't last five mins!

Thanks to catching Covid twice i'm no longer able to work so I can start trying my hand at air layering teeny bits of trees!, I have a load of really small Walsall Studio Ceramics dishes, I may try Shito or Mame..

This is among the smallest I have, It's huge by the OP's standard though!

Here's a small Cotoneaster that I wired in to a full cascade but it was knocked of the bench by birds or squirrels and the pot smashed, I didn't have one the appropriate size so had to put it in twice the depth :(

It looked a bit daft in the oversized pot, Hopefully it'll grow into it! 😊

Here's something I may try, Some kind of Ivy, I have Ivy growing all along the hedges (Never used to so I don't know how it appeared!

This has self set as the pot it's growing in is on top of an upturned large dish on top of a 55 Gallon plastic drum and it hasn't crept up that like the Oak tree and Pear tree!

Forgot to say, The Ivy moved yesterday and said 'Feed me Seymour'!! :oops: 😂

I rooted some Ficus last year in a glass of water, Then potted them up some weeks later, They're around six inches tall now and starting to branch I recently noticed!

I think they're already too large for some of these pots!

Hi guys. First time posting a picture of a mame of mine. I am still totally new to this, and have been reading a lot, and not forgetting watching loads of bonsai videos. Not sure what tree this is as well, but I hope it fits into the category instead of it being in the Shohin size. If anyone knows the name of this little tree, please let me know. Thanks heaps in advance.

My first attempt at a mame. Collected Japanese honeysuckle. Honestly my new favorite plant.

Hi!

Im not working on a mini-bonsai yet! But Im working on the mother tree.
An Acer palmatum Yuki Hime.
Its leaves are the smallest Ive seen so far naturally without defoliation.
