Won't lie... love any cascade style. Be it semi or regular. I do prefer JM over Trident. So I did hesitate on the purchase...as it was a Trident.

Mind you...I own Tridents. I just prefer JM. Personal preference... but Tridents get knuckles from healing over. Now I mentioned that to Bill V. He mentioned addressing them later in the summer. To correct such issues. Which knuckles that truly bother me. I will do as advised.

I also like...ugly. lol I've some what I call knuckles on this new piece. I tilted my head as I studied it. As when I go into deep concentration...I tend to be a head tilter. I don't hate them. I may allow them to remain as character flaws. 😁...

The tree impressed me upon unpacking it. The flare at the base of the tree. Went unnoticed to me on auction. It's quite nice actually, that it made me smile...

6 inches tall... 11 inches wide. Nebari 3 1/2 inches. Trunk 1 1/2 inches.

The pot surprised me as it's 7 inches across...and 5 3/4" tall. So I'll be reducing the roots by 1/3rd in stages. Because...a dead tree serves no purpose. I'll go with kid gloves.

An unglazed pot...I have on hand shown. Unsure I mind it...its temporary. Or if I'll look for a 4 inches tall glazed.
