Style: Formal Upright
Height: 13 in
Container: Chinese
About the tree: This tree started its bonsai transformation in 1999 as a two gallon nursery offering, approximate age 10 years. I bought it at Teas Nursery in Houston, Texas. (John Teas, owner of said nursery, famously ( or infamously) had introduced the Chinese Tallow tree into the United States several decades before, and much to the chagrin of the Texas Department of Agriculture, it rapidly metastasized throughout the region and was officially declared an invasive species!) Estimated age of the pomegranate is 30 years, and it has been in training as a bonsai for the past 20 years. Trunk caliper one inch above the soil line is 21/2", height above the soil line is 13", and the canopy is 15" across.
