Thank you much for what you do how you do when you do. inspiring



Winged elm let mostly run wild in newish shoes (J. Cole). Found a bit too apical domino, now I know. Equisetum in drilled goodwill

Was once an upright tree, it went over in the storm...

everybody got that weird tree, sometimes you break something before wire I suppose

This Amur Maple shutting down early this year with some pretty colours. It's another year of trunk building to make a sort of multi trunk design in the end. Well worth a spot on the bench just for the Autumn show.


As dug & chopped

Waiting for wifey in the car, shall I bag me a cutting?

After owning and staring at this tree for years, I finally saw what this BRT was telling me it wanted to be.
A literati!
Lower stubs will be cut back as they die back.
Also needs an angle adjustment at the next repot.

Elm raft looking a bit wild this time of year. Its intended to be a 5 trunker, but if I lay the far left trunk flat, theres two trunks/branches coming off it which could make it a 7 trunker, we'll see at leaf drop

 

[BobbyLane]

Still a lot of green here...
I think this might end up being a front for this Beech in development

Hinoki ready for a pot next spring.

Nice tall elegant feel, good job Danny. I don’t especially like slabs, but I can see this in a wide, slightly scalloped slab.

Thanks Brian. Pretty pleased with the progress on this one. This season it made a big jump. I have a Dave Lowman egg shell pot I had considered putting it in, but I also have a Dave Lowman soft rectangle I thought would look real nice.

Also. You owe us a tree pic!

Oops, replied to the wrong thread. Good thing I had my camera out today…

Fully agree with all of this, great tree @Hartinez !!!

Koto Hime cutting I started messing with this past spring and now going into fall colors.

A little color coming in.

Tried something different with this styling. It’s a Pfitzer juniper but I saw potential in the branching for it to be styled similar to Sam Tan Bonsai’s Montezuma cypress. Mines got issues, but I think it could really be something in a few years time. This image is from about 2 weeks ago. Originally styled about 5 weeks ago.

BRT in a Daonhachi training pot.
Guess it should be in the Shohin Tree Thread, anyway..

RMJ. More refinement of the foliage and eventually jins amongst said foliage should add the age and character this tree needs. From nursery stock, 2020
