age is of no reall concern . it is hard to define the reall age of a tree , some owners go by how long they have had them
others by how long they have been trained into bonsai
as a collector it is hard to establish age's of tree's from the wild
and one quote by Yoshio Naka
"Asking how old a bonsai tree is , is like asking a beautyful woman her age"
the pot shouldnt be a problem unless :-
- the inside of the pot is glazed
- there is no drainage hole in the bottom of the pot
-the center of the pot is inverted and raises in towards the drainage hole.
