I got this Hornbeam this Morning from the Birmingham Bonsai car boot. I got it from David Cheshire for a brilliant price as i have been working with him at his nursery and got a special discount. Id love to hear some ideas for what i could do with it as i see great potential.

Cheers

Leigh

Can you turn a little from left to right at this picture and take another photo?
So that the apex is more towards the observer.

I think that over time you get to this result. The first branch can easily obtain it through with a graft.
