I agree this one is better. you like it and you can buy it so why not go for it?
ÿÈÕ³Ô¹Ï.de I understand doesn't have extreme prices and while I've never purchased anything there myself, I 've seen them recommended by others.

Still... It's a lotta money.

Yes, sorry! I wasn¡¯t enough precise... The last two trees (the tridents) are sale from a different online seller as bonsais.
The others sell as pre-bonsai.

I order things from them, and I¡¯m happy with the experience :) Fast and reliable company.
Lotta money... I never buy shoes, bags, cosmetic procedures. I¡¯m still a female, somewhere I must spend...

I'm sure you can make something nice out of it (you know I like your landscapes), and I think LB had the same idea.
However, would you recommend someone else to buy it?

No. I said I would buy it. If the price was right :)

Feels to me like you need to take a road trip.

- Get some trees from my garden
- Visit ÿÈÕ³Ô¹Ï Zentrum Munsterland (Which is about 80km from me)
- Visit ÿÈÕ³Ô¹Ï Dusseldorf
- Visit the ÿÈÕ³Ô¹Ï Growing Fields

I think you then should go house shopping, as your balcony cannot handle all these :)

M¨¹nsterland..I¡¯m not sure, but bonsai.de is not their site?
If I just have time for all, I¡¯d love to have that road trip.. Due to my job, I cannot even visit nurseries correctly the past 6-8 months :/ One of the reasons why I search a tree online. From those, maybe one I buy. Depends also if you sell the pine... : D

Yes, the moving is on the plan : ) I hope we can do as soon as possible, but I don¡¯t think it¡¯ll happen before the next summer.
Still have some spots on the balcony due to the dead ones. I would like to fill in 4-5 more prebonsai-ish trees slowly...

Instead of the field maple from bonsai de, I wanted to order the (better one) field elm and an other smaller tree from the other website (not sure if I can post commercial links here...). I run in trouble hence the site won¡¯t let me checking out with credit card or PayPal. I try to call them without success, so now I¡¯m fed up a little bit and gave up...

Could you please check out those for me from the quarantine section of bonsai de?
(All of them are P.pentaphylla)

1. I do not like spiraled trunks
2. I do not like the 45 degree bend. Looks like a little man taking a dump.
4. Clear wire marks. Grafted, the graft is clearly fatter than the rest

3. Lots of branches to choose from. Can't see the trunk, but seems OK. I would consider th is one. That's a lot of money (says he, who purchased a tiny juniper for 200,00 yesterday...)

It¡¯s just 3 trees, but I assume this one is which you consider ok?

Here is the reason why I didn¡¯t want to buy anymore the trident from the web-shop..
Less potent, but for a price of a fast food menu I didn¡¯t expect magic..
