Potting a Haggerbush Bonsai

Friday afternoon, September 24, 2020, I decided to put a haggerbush I had been training for a few years into a bonsai pot.


I purchased this ten inch wide glazed Japanese pot from a nursery in Waimanalo several years ago. The pieces of 1/8 inch aluminum
window screen will be used over the two holes in the bottom of the pot.


The haggergush bonsai, currently in a concrete training pot, has been in bonsai training for several years.


A close pruning is all the tree needs right now. It had been previously wired at least once.

I did not need to do any root pruning. The bonsai is ready for a growing bench.
