Great tree John! I guess no before workshop shots?

If I may be so bold, how much does one pay for such an incredible tree, of that age? Feel free not to answer that. :)

Hi mitchel, The tree came from an older club member that wanted the tree to be past on and developed. If you can find trees of this age you would expect to pay in excess of $2000 if you are not a member of a club.Another good reason to join a bonsai club as as a lot of members want to see the trees that thy have put many years of work into are carried on for years to come.John m
