Description
This is one of my bonsai trees about 2ft high (60cm)and very scruffy. Not a classic species for bonsai, but a handsome one I think. I have let it grow wildly to see those unusual flowers ( see inset for detail of flower). I do like bonsai trees that have flowers as well as interesting shape and foliage. Their are many of you that will know this tree. It looks like a copper beech with tassels on. A relative of the more familiar witch hazel as the flowers show. These do not flower on bare stems but at the end of leafy shoots. I hope Andrea is still guessing?
It's a Loropetalum!

Wonderful shot Kevin, that is a very very dedicated hobby, I tried it once, and failed heinously and incredulously. So I took up music LOL!
Superb capture my friend. God Bless.
Great photo of this bonsai tree, nice to see it flowering, with nice colors. must send this picture to my 2 brothers, they are both crazy with bonsai trees
We have the standard version of these plants in the state Capitol park and I love to see the blooms - like pink streamers pour from a branch. Outstanding shot.
How exciting! So glad you named it, I had NO idea! It is such an attractive thing, and the flower is extremely unusual.
Very beautiful!
It is very cool by you. 5+! Thanks.
