Update
Hi Treebeard.
This tree is still hanging in there... I don't have any pix now, but could get some if anyone's interested. I left the tree alone last year. It showed some buds occasionally but they never seemed to grow out into anything. This spring I dug it up so I could put it into a training pot and keep it more shaded. The thing seems to have spent all last year growing roots. It also decided to host a colony of termites. I had to take a hose to it at full blast to get them and even that didn't clean 'em out. I think I even let it soak totally submerged for a while. I now have it in a plastic tray that I have drilled holes into for drainage. It is in partial shade for most of the day. Once again it is just kind of sitting there. Some new buds, some extension of shoots, but not much overall.
I've been trying to follow along with a study group on Bonsai Vault, but there are so many things I have yet to learn, that I fear I'm not doing as much as could be.
