Oh wow!
That one brings a smile to my face!
Psychedelic!

I think it's so fun.

 

[JudyB]

Lovely!

Thank you, I like this combination much better. That seem to be half the battle!

 

[JudyB]

That stand is awesome too. Just a beautiful combination.

Thanks Jimmy!

Love that tree and the pot combo. The little beauty berry I got from @bpbonsai made it through it's second winter, so I guess that's something. But yours is really something special.

Totally agree, and you can’t go wrong pairing a gekkou with something with berries and/or flowers. Nice combo.

Every one of these trees is stunning @JudyB !

What type of moss do you use? Is it collected or purchased? Looks absolutely perfect.

 

[Potawatomi13]

On Two needle pine. Choose a pair of needles in the location you would like a bud. Gently separate the needles to slightly tear the needle sheath without breaking away the needles. Evidently this causes the tree to send energy to the site for repair and often triggers the adventitious bud at the base of the needles. Best to time with decandling.

Aha! Will try on others.

Hey they all started somewhere... The berries are really the star, so if you get those, then it'll be nice. Just make sure to give it interesting shape!

Thanks Colorado, Living in Ohio, there are plenty of mosses everywhere, don't know what types they are......

Beautiful trees Judy, I love them all. Pots are just perfect.

Talking about berries, allow me to show you something I found few weeks back - Symplocos sawafutagi , anybody familiar with species?

A crabapple just blooming it's little head off...
And my deshojo de- show-hoing off.
We are back in the greenhouse for a couple cold nights, so that's the Kurume as a backdrop!

Just as I finish repotting into my usual and wonderfully recommended earth tone ceramic pots, you come along and spoil my whole mess.

I want COLOR now!

Judy, how do you get the moss to grow? Do you transplant it? Pick it off the surface of something in your yard and place it on top of the soil? It almost looks like you sprinkled the spores on the soil, because it grows so lush and evenly.

I move it around from plant to plant and it spreads out. I keep a moss garden to get it from.
