Chunky mame bonsai

Posted on January 19th, 2008 in Yamadori by Adam

Going today from the biggest tree - (Yamadori Hawthorn) to the smallest.

I have created a new mame bonsai this week. It is a type of willow and it actually quite old for it’s size. It’s between 5-10 years old and is very short indeed. It is under the 10cm requirement for mame but I haven’t measured it exactly because it’s going to grow a bit this spring and move up to shohin status. I found it about this size, all I’ve done is trim it a bit.

It’s very cute looking I think…
