    That is one hell of a bonsai, the Nebari is outstanding!
    Would love to see this one mid summer.

      @@givetanks I've dabbled in Bonsai over the years but i move around too much to have one to really work on. But one day that is the dream! Looking forward to seeing more of this tree.

      @@IndoorEcosystem I've done the same in the past and have been lucky to settle down and have a good bonsai garden - this tree is around 80 years old too

      @@IndoorEcosystem Yeah I originally thought it was around 55 but someone said that it would be closer to hundred so I split the difference

    Great nebari, great foliage. I´m not wild about the massive deadwood trunk.

      Deadwood is either a love or hate. I may carve it later down the road but for now I like it.

    It’s beautiful. Too bad about the pot placement, but it gives you an opportunity to search for just the right pot. Great branch decisions. Did you collect this tree?

    • @givetanks
      @givetanks  7 месяцев назад +2

      Yeah - went into the swamps and found this guys some 8 years ago

    Looking great ! Is regular bonsai soil to dry for this species?

    • @givetanks
      @givetanks  7 месяцев назад

      It all depends on your watering schedule - I use a heavy organic soil so it stays moist all day. Some people put them in a tub of water as they can grow in water in nature.

    This is an amazing tree, you live in the southeast?

      no - so I have to really protect this tree in the winter
