The obliqua dropped all… Continue reading I’m Back Baby!

View this post on Instagram Today's project is this nothofagus cunninghamii, or as most would know it, Tasmanian Myrtle. This wild collected tree was dug around 4 years ago and has responded quite well. Now it has been planted in a mica training #bonsai pot and reduced top and bottom by around 60%.
