Putting them in pots proved too much for my knowledge of the species at the time. One died and I put the other back in the ground. It's about 10 feet tall now. I still find them interesting but Ive been cutting way back on my bonsai work as I'm preparing to move to North Georgia. Good luck and...

I've given up on mine as far as bonsai goes. They are so slow to grow I ended up putting one in the ground this year and it hasn't beefed up any more than the one I have in a pot. I have to water them daily in the summer months for sure. Wish I could help you more.

What are you looking for?

WOW! I didn't know that was required now. I'd give up my account if I had to do that.

I do not.

I see all those wonderful trees you post on the Gram even though I do not have an account. :)
