Korean Hornbeam

New tree, aquired from http://www.bonsaipotter.com september 2011. Imported from the Netherlands the same month. This tree is a korean yamadori from the late eighties according to Jan Olav at Bonsaipotter. 

Also on my watchlist for cold norwegian winters.

"Carpinus turczaninowii /Korean hornbeam Less vigorous form reaching 10metres when mature native to Japan, Korea and China, very small leaves and delicate, branching growth pattern has orange-red Autumn colour. Needs some protection from winter cold and loses lower branches when weakened." - From "Species Guide" at bonsai4me.com.

  1. Denna var också fin, har en intressant stam! (Låter exklusivt med yamadori från åttitalet...)

  2. takk:) Ja, har jo ikke noe stamtavle til treet, så det er høyst uoffisielt.
