Michael Hagedorn's Mountain Hemlock (Tsuga mertensiana), winner of the Finest Evergreen Bonsai at the recent 5 U.S. National Bonsai Exhibition. You might notice the absence of a pot or even your basic bonsai slab (that's a thin synthetic sheet of some sort that it's sitting on). This photo is from Michael's website (see below for Oscar Jonker's Exhibition photo).
I’m a big fan of Michael Hagedorn’s bonsai. I think this comes from observing Michael at work (a couple years ago I spent five days studying with Michael) and from taking the time to look closely at his trees. If I had to say something about the way Michael works in just a few words, I’d say respectfully and with a light touch. No big mystery, but still, the results are often subtle and easy to miss. Especially if you’re in a hurry.
If you wait too long, you’ll miss a great opportunity…
