Common Hawthorn/Crataegus monogyna bonsai by Harry Harrington in the

Upright Broom Form
Slanting Form
In this form the trunk itself slants as though growing toward the light or as
though exposed to strong wind. The trunk can be straight or curved with
branches on the sheltered side lower than their counterparts on the other side of
the trunk. An important feature with this form is that the nebari or roots should
appear to anchor the tree to stop it 'falling' visually. The roots on the side to
which the tree leans should be short and compressed whilst the roots on the
opposite side should be strong and dominant, anchoring the tree into the ground.
