Expensive Tamarindus Indica (Imli)

February 2010, I have purchase a Tamarindus Indica (Imli) plant which is almost 10 years old, and that is my most expensive plant through out my bonsai journey. But, it is WORTH, because the growth of the plant is gorgious within 2.5 months.
Initially I have decided to just repot the plant because , it was the right time to repot for this species, and when nursery person had not done any work for this plant accept giving birth to this gorgious TREE and just watering in these 10 years.

Within 20 days of repotting the plant had given lots of new suits from every angle, (and that was very joyful day), Than i have reduce the height of the plant, by deciding front-back and, and make a computer drawing , which is the future of this plant. (which will come after two years) So, i have to do work according to this future paint.

This picture is the work of 2.5 months only. So, i mean to say that we should buy pre bonsai with maximum maturity. So, we can get good result in short period , (after all we have not enough patience) . I wish that this plant can do better in coming years, because i love this plant very much. Some other bonsai artist does not like this shape (in ahmedabad) , and by their openion this is not good shape, but i like this, and final decision is mine. I do not know what i have done and what i am going to do , but after all i am also a SMALL ARTIST, and there is no limit of an art.

I request all the bonsai lover to give their ideas about this plant, if you feel that i am not so good about this shape , please suggest better option about this tree.

Future of this plant afater two years.





I have seen lots of tamarindus bonsai plants on the internet, but special for this plant is most of the branches coming from above to down, even it is in conical shape, and Sir PETER CHANN had agreed that it is good looking plant, and Sir, Harry Harington had also admire me that, this plant has good bark texture. so,, i like their comments, and will go in the same way in future..

I always afraid from monkeys, because they are attacking on this species at my home, and monkeyes are coming in large amount. so, i prey god (HANUMANJI) that monkeys are welcome to my home, but they should not come with hunger......
