Hello all,
I have had this bonsai for around 7 years and I have never been able to find out what type it is. I have also never seen another one. Can anyone identify it?
Many thanks

the type is mallsai
the species is podocarus

That is a podocarpus,
looks very mature as well

I disagree

Straight trunk, no tapering, no nebari, no good branch positioning, no ramificiation, unclear style (or actually the style is absent) and apparently a pretty young, untrained, unshaped plant that can hardly be called a bonsai, I'd say.

No need for spiteful comments, Thanks.

My apologies for that. Let me make it up by posting a picture of a Podocarpus bonsai.
