Weird name but Canadian Tire is a retail store that sells lots of things.
Thread tax. My second tree I got two years ago didn't have a good winter. It's river birch I tried wind swept with. Lots of dead branches, only the sacrifice and a few other branches are leafing out.

Rudd’s California Juniper #2
It’s probably time to start a progress thread on this tree. I posted my initial styling in my Apprenticeship thread, but I’ll post the pictures again here. I initially styled this tree belonging to David Nguy in November 2022. There were a couple issues with this initial styling, first that...www.bonsainut.com
I looked at some flower buds on my wisteria.

I wish I had the money and time to have order the right pot for this procumbens.
A @sorce pot I got a 2 or 3 years ago. It's going to have to be a training pot for now.
I had another cascade pot but a 10" pot was just too big.
The roots were coming out of one side of this pot that was not high fired it seems.
The pot I wanted to use was a month out and in the UK or China
Maybe next go round ^ $60 to ship...I think this colour would offset the trunk and foliage nicely.

I sat inside and watched the torrential downpour hammering my newly emerging Japanese Maple leaves. Do you really want to see a picture?

Oh boy, you are far too close to Canada to not know the joy of Canadian Tire. Do your self a favor and check one out when you’re next north of the border.
I believe I’ve posted this tree before, but it is my latest purchase! Wired up a few branches that were wired down for shipment.

Now I'm wrapped up in a blanket rethinking river birches...I was warned about birch, chose not to listen, like an idiot.

This was one of the last raw Bald Cypress that the late Mary Madison had collected(I believe there’s 4 others). I’ve always been enamored by her trees as they were naturally stunted and therefore came with proportions already created by nature. I acquired the tree from Mirai last year and repotted it in a Horst container last spring during an intensive there. Unlike the other two of her trees that I already have, this was naturally a collected clump.
There was a rather long tap root that I wasn’t able to reduce as much as I’d like and so for now the tree sits a tad higher than I’d have preferred(a reduction at the next repot is planned). Either way, it recovered well through 2023 and it was ready for the initial structure to be set. Ryan was in town and I entrusted him to perform the task.

Yes they sell tires, think of it more like an upscale Walmart with more of a focus on tools, cars and garden stuff
