Purchased this guy June 2019 at a local club auction. The pot was free. :)

Did a slip pot on it right away, cleaned it up and also created my first ever jin.

September 2019
With help from a couple friends we selected a new front and I did my first structural wiring and styling. I didn't have any copper at the time so it's mostly aluminum. I'm ready for the next round though! We mainly set the structure.

The bottom right branch is getting jinned, as is the big tuft at 3 oclock. it was left on for the being because a repot was coming in the spring.


Spring 2020
Time to get this oriented right! repot time! APL 1:1:1 mix

Again the big tuft in the top right is going away this fall when I rewire the tree.

I think It's going to take one more repot to get it right because i kinda like this view...
