I finally got one, but it is a rather puny thing (1/2" caliper). Because they
warn you about twig dieback in winter, I decided not to put it in the ground. I
put it in an 8" growing pot in bonsai soil (chopped back). Can anyone point me
to pictures of bonsai of this variety or the tree in the ground, or even
regular B. pendula? The one in Tomlinson is not terribly impressive. Anybody
know the origin of 'Trost's Dwarf?'
