History: Collected as a seedling from owners garden some 4 or 5 years ago and trained into semi cascade style. Potted into pot two years ago. Regularly leaf and shoot pruned to reduce leaf in size
History: I got the tree about 7/8 years ago, it was in a cheap lot for £25. It only had branches at the top of the trunk so I removed all but one branch, I then wired that branch all the way down the back of the tree, you can just see the branch going over at the back, it was then grown on for a couple of seasons and then designed and wired. I carved the stand out of 3x3 Ash.

Category: Mame
Style: Semi cascade
Size: Height of the tree 7cm / 2.75"
Potter: Unknown

History: Apart from the initial bend the trunk was straight so I wired it and bent it to the shape it is now. It had lots of branches so I removed everything but the two upright branches coming off the trunk then just pinching the growth to form some ramification.
