The Tree Thread

[River's Edge]

New Project Juniper! Partial Repot this morning, now for cleanup and a bit of thinning to let light in. Lots of healthy foliage farther out! Will involve chasing back the foliage and lots of small steps.

Seedling maples potted out today from their plugs.

This has so much Presence.
So loud in its small space.

Just because I felt the urge to go take a photo of a tree, two very slightly different angles here. Got repotted this year, just starting to grow again now. View attachment 199732View attachment 199733

My Baseball Boxwood Broom turned Cricket in an Erin Pot.

Old project tree, it was in the ground for awhile. I find it to be very strong, every winter I am condensing, and thinning the branching.

Yellow Alaskan Cedar, native species collected yamadori. Have previously repotted, cleaned up deadwood and begun styling. Working now on foliage. A work in progress over the past four years and a new species to learn.

Neat tree. It's certainly unique. I'm interested to see what you make from it!

Brazilian rain tree. I was thinking flat top. Leafing out after being repotted and defoliated. It started shedding bark the other day. The trunk movement doesn't show in the photos, it's not so straight.

That's like no Hibiscus I know of. Those leaves, more like prunes.

ive posted this Hornbeam earlier from a different angle....

Multi-trunk subalpine fir (abies lasiocarpa). This species back buds readily.

Purple bougainvillea. Probably looks better in a rectangular pot, right? But this one is roomy that I may keep developing it along further.

Holy Moly there are some good trees in this thread!

A twisty JBP, second flush coming in very strong.

Collected Mt. Hemlock. Few bends to begin styling. branches will wait as will any foliage removal until recovery from bending. The ugly cygnet before the swan.

Shimpaku " Kishu" obtained Olympia workshop with John Muth in 2016. Taking my time reducing the size and selecting trunk line. Tree had lots of options. Completed very little work in the workshop deliberately! Repotted spring of 2017 to grow box from nursery pot. It is beginning to show some promise.

Kingsville Boxwood Looking sparse, needs time to fill in after cleaning the interior and crotches along with thinning out. Some say you should not wire boxwood, just clip and grow. Perhaps my excuse is " thought it was a procumbens!" Tree is 7 inches tall
