new 'start' material - common Rowan (sorbus aucuparia)

New 'start' material, Sorbus Aucuparia or Common Rowan
This is new material, found and dug out during holiday weekend in Belgian Ardennes. If you read my blog you know I am not a fan of collecting trees in ecological environments. So this one (along with 2 others) I found at the very side of the road in the immediate proximity of the place we stayed, within 50m ever. These parts are mowed every few years to clear the road, either by the owners or by the local community services.

This too is destined for a future as 'pollarded' bonsai-tree. But for now, I just pruned to give it a start, growth needed! Lets hope it survives the brutal habitus change. It is small size, and maybe will end up about 30 to 40 cm in height?
