    Mea culpa … you’re absolutely right @Silver surfer … I should’ve posted the link (as I usually do) … life’s a tad fraught here at the moment … thanks for putting it right for me 🙏 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    I realised that I have never seen you do it before.
    But newbies might just copy this way to add images.

    One web site I am on nearly got closed down for infringing copyright law.
    I think Moderator ended up banning culprits who wouldn't listen.

    Sorry life is fraught for you at the moment.
    Happy Easter and  a successful growing year in the garden.
    Cheers

    I have tried to post links, and failed.

    But what a fantastic bonsai.  I don't think I have the skills needed keep one like that, nor the pocket to buy one.  Or is it severla?

    Here's another native I am growing.

    English Elm.  From a hedgerow sucker.

    I've not yet found the right pot.  Nor have I found the right style.  I think I have to make it taller and thinner like the mature Elm Trees we used to have.   I stlll can.  At least I have stopped it sending up annual suckers.

    I am careful to spray against insects and fungus.  I don't want it to succumb to the dreaded Dutch Elm Diseae.
