Nice, did you intentionally draw the face? Menacing Hinoki, lol

Haha! Nope. That one nature created. That pic is unedited! But watch how your talking about it or it might come after you in your sleep…..

Things are looking great since I pinched about 3/4 weeks ago. First time I’ve pinched this tree. The heat from last week was a concern but it seems to have handled it just fine with the exception of just a couple small brown tips.

So pleased with development of the apex of this tree.

Really thinking this tree will be much more suited in this Dave Lowman soft rectangle.

Personally feel this pot is much more appropriate for the tree than the rock/slab. I think it will look great in that rectangle!

Agreed and with all those recent wild collected trees, that slab/rock will be very appropriate!

Thanks Bobby. Really happy with this tree. At this point after next years repot I’m mostly in refinement. Though some branches need some thickening. The trick will be to allow the foliage to push thickening while keeping the tree tight. I also need to refine the Shari more next season.

So thrilled this Hinoki continues to do so well. It’s always so pleasing when I find trees that don’t hate my dry ass alkaline environment here in the high desert southwest.

this tree may be fit for my Dave Lowman egg shell pot. Next spring.

Eggshell all the way…between the two.

Ugghh. N-V-US. That tree is killing it. Great movement and the foliage is filling out nicely.

Thanks! It really made a big jump this year.

Need to get a decent setup again, but I wanted to get a simple capture of this tree after a recent repot. Chose the Dave Lowman egg shell pot and I’m thrilled with the look. It sat in that Anderson flat for 2 years and produced some excellent root growth. I’ll let it rest for just a bit then will rewire and trim. I may also Jin a few more branches as well. Sometime in may.

 

[Hartinez]

Check that. I need a decent PHOTO SETUP again. I just moved and photographing with a stucco background just isn’t cutting it.

 

[Hartinez]

Better photo

 

[Ruddigger]

Dope.

 

[Hartinez]

Thinned and pinched slightly and added a touch of wire.
