Excellent! There is something about "flat top" trees that I love. Reminds me of the African savannah.

You forgot your own rules!

A yamadori Chickasaw plum I will be receiving next spring.

Recently acquired ponderosa pine, so not styled by me yet. Nature has done a great job so far though. Definately one of my favorite to stare at in the garden.

Ha! But I got an extra pic from you!

Growing bonsai is almost like playing Lego..

Coast redwood, worked on very hard during the summer and now resting.

Took these pics of this little guy today after doing some work on the apex. This tree doesn't know it's only a 7 inch cutting. It thinks it's an ancient yamadori. lol

I want to play. This is a young tree but got it for cheap. It's my first/trial shimpaku. Here it is recently restyled for the inagural show of the bonsai club that I'm helping to start. The second picture it is actually displayed in the show.

Guess where this tree is growing?

This tree is growing right across the side walk from this tree. This little tree is less than 2 feet tall.
