Bought this mountain hemlock a year ago from a collector in the Pacific Northwest. It’s got a long skinny trunk ad at the very top is big bend then the foliage. It calls for a literati style bonsai. After studying it, I sketched my future vision for it. I plan to do the first styling this fall and possibly repot it in a smaller pot next spring. Part of the trunk has a natural shari that I would like to carve to give it more interest. Pot will need to be custom made, probably a crescent type but might do something completely different and unique. Can’t wait to work on it.
