I have been very good all summer. I kept my hands in my pockets and didn’t buy any new trees. We really do need to reduce our inventory to some degree and have in fact managed to relocate a lot of stock. I am pleased to say I am now in full relapse and buying again. 7am this morning we took delivery of the first shipment of yamadori, several are on the way.
Once I get this lot sorted out it’ll be hitting the web site. For now you will have to make do with these few snaps.

Oh no, I feel some spending coming on! Sabina Juniper I do have a soft spot for!
Yes myself like Sabina Juniper had two off Graham but could be tempted to one more.
They look stunning. Way out of my league for now though!
I want to know the size pot to use for my bonsai which is 18 inches high and a S shape, should it have a drainage hole in the bottom. I would like a black glazed one preferably. It’s very beautiful and the shop where I purchased it did not know the name of it which i am still going to try and find out as I read that is necessary in knowing how to maintain it, is that the case and do you sell them.
Thank you for your help,
Audrey
Leave it where it is for now. Until you know more you are just asking for trouble.Buy a copy of Bonsai Basics and go from there.

Is it ok or detrimental to bonsai that r established to take them from the bonsai pot their in and put them in the ground to grow as a normal plant just to naturally grow for afew years ,just to let them stretch their legs ,so to speak,
Sure it’s Ok.

I’m curious, Watching you reudce the root-ball looked very indiscriminate. I understand that root pruning should focus on removing the larger tap root and larger branch roots, while trying to preserve the young feeder roots. You in essence cut 2/3rds of the root ball with no real discretion. How is this tree? Did it survive?
I’v been doing this for over 25 years, I learned a few things along the way.
