Well I haven’t been very good at taking pictures of this tree this year. However I was able to obtain a bonsai pot to put it in. Since the tree is so big, I needed to find something of similar dimensions to accommodate it. This one fits the bill. It measures 36″ L X 28″ W X 6″ deep. We expect the tree, soil and pot to have a combined weight of over 500 lbs! Now that’s a bonsai!!!

Just 4 years ago to almost the day I bought this tree as a pre-bonsai, now here it stands on display at Disney’s Epcot for approx 1.7 million (estimated of course) people to see during the Flower and Garden Festival. It really turned out great, and it is in location that I had hoped it would be. In the following picture shows it proudly displayed in front of the Japanese restaurant. The background colors complement the tree and make for some outstanding pictures. This tree is on display until June 3, 2007, if you get the chance check it out. April 2007

By the way, notice the change in pot. The previous pot was loaned to me and I had to switch it out before the show. However I think this one looks a lot better for this tree.


If you look closely in the center of the picture you can see this tree displayed.
