Imperial Masterpiece
I was visiting my in-laws last weekend and bought a Coma or La Coma or Saffron Plum - Sideroxylon celastrinum (or Bumelia celastrina). Online check shows it to be Florida and TX native.
I chopped it down to 10" from 7 feet and have no idea if it will make it. I just like the bark and small leaves but the tree was on a burlap when I bought it and after it got home learned that it was newly collected w/ very little roots. I was told by the nursery that they will back bud w/o any problem.
Anyway, anyone seen a bonsai made out of this tree? Or any experience working on one?
Thanks!
