I can’t get a decent picture outside because NC is too green right now. And the bonsai guy at Campbell’s Greenhouses in Charlotte fussed at me a little for working my tree when it isn’t dormant yet.

But, I already started and it had to be finished.

The 10″ pot I got in Asheville was too small. I let the cedar get bigger than that pot could handle. So, since I was going to be in Charlotte, I went shopping there for a larger size. This one is 18″.

I will wait until Spring to do anything with the branches. Probably Spring of 2020 to give it some time to get over the most recent abuse.

I’m thinking that I’ll use the 10″ pot for the established maple in January and collect maple seedlings in potting soil next year to combine with it in a couple of years.
