Sometime I end up with a tree which doesn't go the way I want it . This is one of them ,




I decided to remove this root from the front of this small melaleuca,




yep this one right here,




so a decision was made to split it away from the main trunk,






The root split away nicely and I pushed a chopstick inbetween,

the root from several angles,










So I wouldn't waste something like this, I have a vision of it as a small tree around 120mm high,

I repotted the root into this beautiful bonsai container from Makisada Ceramics in Belgium,







It's about just enjoying and learning as I go,




Take care, happy easter.

regards Craig..

I 'm not sure if I should agree with that.

Somehow I expected this reply and your long toes (dutch expression, I guess).

But read again, this time carefully:

Would've been worse if I said I fully agree with Bob, now wouldn't it?
