Japanese Crabapple

[jk_lewis]

This little tree is a result of a workshop Bill V offered here at the NC Arboretum in 2008 or 09. It is actually three trees (at the time, 3 seedlings) with fused trunks. I clamped them together with 2 or 3 zip ties, then let them grow. They'd pretty much fused in 2 years. This pic was taken this morning. Much work yet to do on the top. Tree is 6+ inches from pot. Plans call for a 8-inch tee.

Pot is by Robert Wallace, a local bonsai potter.

Malus floribunda . . . and it is much too young to have bloomed. Probably will never see it.

never say never... Looks like it melded together well.
