This old Swamp Cypress was developed from tube stock I purchased in 1981. Such a long time ago... developed in my field beds over many years, transferred to a large training pot, and eventually into this bonsai pot.
It is difficult to explain the attachment I have to my old bonsai... and probably seems very odd to others. Bonsai has become much much more than a 'hobby' to me now..... again, difficult to explain.
The 'up-side' to this is that my bonsai will eventually have a 'history', and with each bonsai I sell that history will become richer as, so far, all sales have gone to great homes.
NB.... still have some bonsai for sale
