CENTER BONSAI REPOTTED!

Center Bonsai after repotting

Center Bonsai is the Chinese elm bonsai depicted in my 2014 painting Center Bonsai. It has grown Beautifully over the past four years - being kept outdoors and indoors in Northern England. The pot broke, presumably due to freezing temperatures, but I managed to find an almost exactly identical pot, and watched videos on how to repot it.

Repotting it was a beautiful experience!

Following is my painting Center Bonsai, followed by before and after images of the repotting of the bonsai. Notice the broken pot in the before image.
