For sale at the forthcoming Ausbonsai sale day is this Trident maple.
It was grown from seed by me, wired as a seedling and then grown in the ground for about 5 years and dug up about 9 years ago.
It has nice thickness, root spread, taper and movement.
With a couple more years of refinement it should be a top show tree.

Asking $900

Grant, that is a very striking pot, and I have just seen a few with the same glaze in Hoy Leong Kwong's book Pine Bonsai in the Tenperate Climate. Are you able to provide any information on the providence of the pot please?
Bonsai was meant to keep me away from the computer. So I got a smart phone to take out to my benches.
