many times when i buy nursery stock... and stock that is grown specifically
for bonsai... i have to dig down in the pot to get a look at the root base.
this weekend .. i bought a young japanese maple at a bonsai nursery and had
to take off almost an inch of soil to see what the tree looked like down
below. then i had a thought. in doing so... burying the trunk.... can you
inrease caliper and trunk flare??
