I figured you wouldn't want to miss out on this one. I took these photos today, just a few days before it blooms.

It's great, love the colors! Would be great to see it flowering in your own garden, I think :)

Now, the flowers are pink, but they will be white when they open. And in fall they give red/orange like apples with yellow leaves. Quite a spectacle! Lovely trees those Malusses and very easy to handle.

It's a Malus Micromalus, or: Crabapple.

The leaves look so similar to ficus species in your photos haha. I've heard crab apple, now i know what you talking about haha. Its a very nice crab apple bonsai, most of the ones I've seen the branches are too straight and rigid. You've given the tree some nice movement :)
