This
happened on May 13th of this year, which is definitely way too late
according to general wisdom here. Why? Because the tree is really at
risk and will most probably die or be very weak for a long time. Now at
the end of July, 11 weeks later I could take another look at the
hornbeam. Apparently he has not read all the info and all the comments
and does not know that he was supposed to die. It is clearly more
vigorous than most hornbeams that I see around the year in other
gardens. The new growth will stay on over winter. On May 11/12 the tree
will be part of my demo again. It will be edited and have another
quality boost.

pots a huge collected hornbeam into a good bonsai pot. This is the tree
that WP has styled at Generation Bonsai 2017. It is perfectly OK to
repot in the middle of May with full foliage if you know what you are
doing. If not you definitely should not do it. Aftercare and weather
forecast are crucial. Assistant is Thomas Haering.
