I’ve had this tree for awhile, but decided to finally make a post for it. When I originally received it, it was poorly wrapped and secured in the shipping box and got pulled out of the pot it was in. I reset it in the pot it came in and added some support with a wooden block. It ended up dropping all its leaves and sulked that year, but put on a good amount of root growth. This year I decided this year to repot it into a bonsai pot with a bit better mix and slightly adjust the angle. I think the pot may be a tad small for the end look I’m wanting, but I do like the shape a lot.

After repot:

Plan is to let it recover and grow some and then reset the main branches back to start building taper.
