    Hi
    Got a few of these young trees to give away.
    They around 10- 15cm high.
    Can't post them so pick up in Lenasia.
    Will take a picture tomorrow morning.

    Just a tip to all of you hoping to cultivate these for bonsai.
    Get big to grow them out in, watch out for the taproot, so place a flat rock under the tree when planting it, or a smallish tile/piece.
    Also, they are prone to getting mould/fungus ALL over the leaves, so get a mild fungal treetment for when they do, and they almost always do.
    Reducing the leaf size is slow going at the start, so focus on growing the specimen for girth then you can start cutting leaves
