I got this pre-bonsai from a local nursery. The character is so strong, but it was not styled to expose the character, so re-styling is on process...

Don't be supprised with the leaves size on the simulated picture..Premna's leaves can be reduced significantly from the original size of 8 CM to 2 MM !!!

That's a sweet tree! Please show us an update when the foliage fill in later.
Roberts, do you treat the deadwood with lime sulfur to whiten it? Do these premna's look better with dark narural untreated deadwood?

Sam, I don't see Piko for quite sometimes, but still in contact.

Nguyen, we threat with lime-sulfur to preserve, not for coloring...I always like natural color...
