Prunus Serrulata?

[Mapleminx]

So I have kind of always wanted one as a bonsai but I really never see them ANYWHERE here. Is there a reason for this? Are other Prunus much much better suited?
The only Serrulata I find are old seeds that never germinate or large nursery landscape stock.

I have one that I received from Bill Valavanis (International Bonsai) last year. It's only about a pencil thickness, planted in the ground, but the natural trunk movement and flowers should make it pretty spectacular in a few years.

Hi Mapleminx,

I know a person who has a beautiful serrulata here in in northern Italy, I know for sure he ships to Germany. I'm sending you a PM!

It's pricey, yes. I chanced upon it when visiting his nursery and he has some superb material, but the price range can be like that.

We will have Prunus serrulata 'Beni Hoshi' cuttings late next spring.
