August 2010: Images from the garden of a student of his impressive bonsai collection

This Hawthorn/Crataegus monogyna was first discovered growing on the side of an old coal heap in the NorthWest of the UK in August 2005. Though a large tangled mess of a tree, when viewed from ground level a superb trunkbase could be seen and I collected the tree during early Spring 2006 and planted it into a large black nursery tub

August 2010: After 4½ years of development the bonsai has suddenly taken shape and after rewiring I took a series of images.
