Hi all

I had these two trees given by a friend a few years ago, , Around two years ago another friend wanted to have a go at Bonsai so I repotted these two and gave them to him..


The larger one will most likely be too difficult as I don't think I have a pic with it in leaf, Also, There's a Rhododendron immediately behind it!! :oops:
The other one has dark red leaves and fruits similar to Haws..

I repotted this one in to a pot that he had bought, It was a lovely round High fired pot but not actually a Bonsai pot as it had no feet!, He'd put it on feet so that it doesn't hold water and stay overly wet, It stands around three and a half feet high and is around four inches thick at the base of the trunk..

This is the other..

The fruit.

Would anyone have any idea so that I can tell him what his trees are?


Cheers, John :thum:

Number 2 is a variety of crab apple I think, maybe ‘Royalty’.

First one looks like a hornbeam. Not sure about the second.
