here's the 2nd one same deal as the first not particularly exited but time will tell...

Hmmmmm...interesting choices of branches. Are you possibly thinking of a *windswept* form for this one?

Those are awesome pots too if i may add. These trees have so much potential

i piked the small leader and left the second to leave some foiliage on the tree it will most likely come off in the future..too early to pik a style as of yet.
as for the pots my dad keeps finding these little things he knows i like shohin so he picks them up for me.they are always 5$ and under :blink: i never have that kinda luck

Oh, right! I see now what you did. Thanks for explaining that... I find it really helpful to understand what is being done.

Hey Keith...do you think I could borrow your Dad for a while? I have never seen a *real* bonsai pot for sale anywhere, never mind such cheaply priced ones!

Haha we have pots near to where i live but Japanese pots are really expensive

Hey Keith,

Are you considering growing one of them out just sitting in a big pot, and letting it go to create a massive trunc over a few years? These look nice and well-rooted. Think you may be on to something there!
