Google "angel oak" it's an live oak in S.C. (I think) it grows some limbs down into the ground, and then back up. I have thought of doing something like this,...it might have to be done with grafts and it stands to reason that will have to be a rather large bonsai in a huge pot,...the cost of the pot may be prohibitive so you might think of a slab and due to weight you may want to make a slab from hypertufa.
