    Big boy Bald Cypress is waking up!

    Always nice to see this big guy waking up. This one is in a 24” training pot and has three sets of knees that are growing nicely. It’s been three seasons since it was chopped down from a 12’ nursery tree root bound in a 50 gallon pot. So far so good towards the final design.

    A few pictures of Florida tropicals this morning.

    Thank you. It was a 12’ tree I found in a nursery pot bound in a 50 gallon pot. It’s a work in progress. Hard to see in the photos but there are three sets of knees also.

    Yes, it’s a poinciana about 10 years old. No blooms yet but I’m hopeful.

    Large Bald Cypress with three sets of new knees.

    Another update on this large Bald Cypress along with some other tropicals. It’s starting to callous over and is really growing out as I intended. These guys are all pretty large.

    Jason, it's an old Schefflera. The canopy is a little over 5' across.

    Large Bald Cypress with three sets of new knees.

    Here’s a couple more pictures in the sun. I cut the split down a little with a sharp knife to eventually look like a split in the trunk to compensate for such a fat tree with an eventual flat top design. Hopefully it will callus over well eventually.

    Large Bald Cypress with three sets of new knees.

    I Posted this tree when I trunk chopped it last year and just moved it out of the plastic concrete mixing tub into the 22” training pot. I buried it pretty low its first year to help protect the roots from drying out in the Florida sun, and this year found that there were three new sets of...

    Small white worms in soil

    From what I was able to find on line I think you are correct. They look just like fungus gnats larvae from the photos I have seen. They are very resilient and had to get rid of.

    Small white worms in soil

    I do see even smaller bugs running around that look like tiny beatles and are kind of reddish in color. The worm looking things are almost a clear to white in color and 1/16-1/8" long.

    Small white worms in soil

    Can anyone help me identify the small white worms looking creatures that are in the soil of my BRT and Bouginvilla? They are about an 1/8" long and constantly squirming around. Hopefully you can see them in the pictures or video.

    Large Crepe Myrtle styling help

    Well, here it is a year later. It has a long way to go but so far so good. Crepes grow like crazy in South Florida so it’s constant shaping and pruning.

    Extra large Bald Cypress styling help

    Well, here is the big guy this week. He’s reaching about six feet now and very healthy for his first year being collected from the nursery. Next spring I’ll she what it looks like defoliated and choose what to do with it. This year it was left to grow untouched.

    Young JBP help please

    I agree. I’m just happy they are both doing so well right now. I guess each will pose a different set of challenges.

    Young JBP help please

    I received these two very different looking young Black Pines from two different sources about a month ago. I slip potted them when I got them directly into 10” pond baskets in a good draining Bonsai soil and it looks like they are both doing very well so far. One of my questions is, should...
