Another source to check-out is the Martin Treasure book (Bonsai Life
Histories, I think). He talks through the development of a large Ginkgo in
this style with photos of its development. (Not tremendously detailed given
the breadth of species in the book, but worth a look given the rarity of
articles on this species). (Off topic, I love the Styrax in the book).
International Bonsai also has an issue devoted to Ginkgo (in 1982 I
believe). It was still available for back order last time I checked. It does
not deal specifically with stumps, but has cultural advice, history etc....

I want to develop an old gingko stump into the older "flame" style for
lack of a better description. Is anyone aware of any books that address
this style development?
