It seems that the it is now impossible to find seedlings online right now. I ordered some tridents from International Bonsai but it seems they are out of stock and it is unknown (to me) if they have stock in Chinese elm or another cheap, suitable species. Perhaps I will just have to settle on watching the progress of these lovely entries (unless someone knows where i can still get seedlings of any kind without bankrupting myself).


Maybe I will try this technique out next year if it doesn't work out this year.

Have a look at local gardening centre for shrub material.

Hi all,

I'm new here and trying (since this year) to train some bonsai i had in the garden for over six years now.

I read some article About trunkfusion and found (only) 5 seadlings. I'm trying to fuse these together, i know it aren't the 10 plus for the contest but for a first try.........

Is it interesting to make pictures and post them? In the same topic as the contenders? But i wil not be entering the contest because i used to little seadlings.

Next year i wil seed a lot of oaks en the year after i Will try to fuse these...

Cheers Martin
