Trident From On Line Work Shop

Some of you will remember the work shop that I tried to do on line.
Even though I don't feel that the workshop was very well recieved some of you might want to see how this tree is progressing. This is the second pruning and the second wiring since the workshop. The new crown is comming along and there are limbs below the healed chop which was one of the requested changes, The new chop is healing well and should be almost gone by next fall.
Here is the new picture.

Here in Illinois I can't find a single store selling Trident maples. I've shopped for miles around, nothing. The Bonsai store I visit says they may have cuttings for sale next spring.. but there doesn't appear to be anywhere I can get older stock from. __________________ It's not the size that counts, it's how you wire it.

You can email him and tell him what you are looking for in the tree and he will do his best to find one that meets your needs. __________________ "What we see depends mainly on what we look for", because "Creation and art are defined only by the boundaries we confine ourselves" both quotes written by authors unknown

They sell a lot of material specifically grown for bonsai - from cuttings instead of grafts. http://www.mountainmaples.com/WS4D_...07_7/index.html __________________ Respectfully, Lee Sanner
