Forsythia root-over-rock
This forsythia is a last surviving member of my first attempts at bonsai. It is basically three years in training. The last two years it spent bound to a rock in a pot, since i was unable to plant it out.
spring is rapidly approaching so I took this opportunity to uncover the roots and plant it in a pot. There are a few roots that aren't grasping the rock as closely as I'd like so I plan on strapping them down again until they the way I want them.
As for overall styling I plan to let the tree grow fairly freely for the next season and do a full styling next spring.
below are a few shots
