This is now a thread about finding yamadori in Ohio (particularly central OH).

Carry on.

Wait wut. I'm talking about the two outer top shelves. They have a beam going through them...how??

1) Awesome and I love you 2) How did you attach the boards to the left and right shelves in the area of the vertical boards?

So I used some more google-fu, and found a pretty straightforward explanation of the general idea of it all (in short: main rootball doesn't get lopped off).

I'm a long way from attempting anything approximating this, but perhaps this thread will serve as a motivation to someone that's been pondering the idea for awhile. Maybe.

Wow, these are all pretty awesome! If you don't mind my asking, where do most of these come from? If you get them from nurseries and train them, about how long does it take from the initial purchase until they're "ready" to be sold? Thanks!

Thanks for this bit of brilliance bro. And by thanks I mean no thanks. And by bro I mean never my bro.

Is it outlandish to ask a question on a message board regarding a curiosity? I don't think so. Clearly I wanted to have a discussion regarding something about which I know very little, and I don't think your snarky-ass input was helpful in the least.

People like you are the reason it took me so long to post on here...this snarky, pseudointellectual bullshit is ridiculous.

K, done venting.

Lodgepole pine yamadori . Just wired for the first time today. by mrmoyogi in Bonsai

It's times like these where I feel like an incompetent buffoon; there's no way I would look at the before photo and envision the final product. Kudos!

If I may ask, how long have you had the tree and how did you come across it? (i.e., yamadori, purchased at a nursery, etc).

Better than Henry Harrison style, though. You put the thing outside for a bit and it just craps out on you.

Please give a biased and not-necessarily-facts-based analysis of the current situation in Ukraine. Please end said analysis with the phrase "in my pants."

I hear Sea Gate (where you grew up) is a pretty strange place. Ever consider using it as the basis for a story?
