This Hornbeam bonsai has a great trunk, and was at a greatly reduced price from Laos Garden bonsai nursery (€45 in 2018). Little did I know what was lurking under the surface ...
In this video, I tame those massive monster roots; I also:
- convert a plastic pot to a colander-style air pot for better aeration, to encourage more fine root growth for a year.
- I pot the Hornbeam roots with a neat trick called the "Blue Sky root method"
- I wire the branches to give the bonsai its first ever styling.
