A real emperor. Congrats on your find. How much roots did it have when collected? Did you use any spcial (out of the ordinary) care? What soil is it in now?

This was exception from usual hard collecting in rocky area. Tree with all roots was growing on slab, so we have collected it in 10 minutes .... since it was huge an heavy it took few hours to bring it to car.
It grows in inert substrate, expanded clay and peat.

Amazing! Thanks for info!

Well done! Would like to see it when leafed out, too!

marija !

good to see you back here...

you have always posted wonderful work and this hornbeam is no exception !

!!! jako lijepa !!!

Nicely done. More pictures when it is settled in and leafing out please.

Magnificent tree! A monster size too. I would not have guessed it was that big.

I think it is almost always a good sign when you can't judge the size of a bonsai in a photograph.

Awesome, yeah, far from what I could ever achieve.

It seems to go to the right at the top, is that your vision of the tree?

Me four-eyed owl saw a slightly different story:

wow is all I can say. Well done.
