Harry, the old Avatar tree. I always thought this tree had a lot of potential, I am sure that you will miss it out in the yard. Paul was a good tree finder when he would go out on his marathon nursery crawls. I miss talking and emailing with him- RIP.

He was a good friend and loved bonsai as much as anyone I know. I hope you take good care of his big RMJ and make hin proud.

Beautiful tree harry, I admire your resolve and intestinal fortitude to see it go.

I hope the funds were enough to replace it with a few that have the potential to become that one day.

Another nice tree, Harry. How does one retire from bonsai? Sorry to read it's already sold... but I'm sure I'd have to take a second mortgage to afford it.

Try lifting/moving a 40" tall oak in a pot 18" across

Is this a mines bigger than yours? I have trees in 42" pots, I have seen trees at Guy guidry's and Dan Robinsons places n 60"pots. Get a forklift if you want to talk about big trees.

Harry is working towards a very specific range of trees, we tease him because he is a big tree guy in a drooling small tree guy body.
Cheers,
John

They already have a cure, it's called a Funeral.
