I found this one in a local nursery, it was pretty much ignored because no one could figure out what to do with it. However, when I asked the price, it was worth 2.5M VND (about $140 US)...no way!!
My buddy Tuan and I went one day but I sort of broused the other side of the nursery while he went looking at the tree. For him the tree was suddenly 1M VND...damned 'white tax' !! I had taken a few pics of the tree and made some sketches earlier, at almost 6' tall, 48 around the base and about 400 lbs there was no way I was gonna get it home on my moto...had a baguette guy deliver it.
First pic is the way it was in the nursery, second one was after a day of scrubbing and some pruning, last is after about 8 hours of die-grinder action.
