Potted this tree up at Bonsai Jidai after 10 years in a post-collection box.

With the impending snowstorm this week, I figured it was time to finally make use of the new greenhouse for its maiden winter. Took about 12 hours but was able to fit everything in.

Less trees?! That’s blasphemy! (The two side pergolas will likely be converted into heated greenhouses too next year)tight... either need bigger place or less trees
Photo tax: A Sierra juniper I recently pruned. There was quite a bit of discrepancy in strength between the lower foliage and the apex. Kept most of the lower foliage untrimmed and reworked the apex heavily.

@Ruddigger Yep, Siberian Elm from @cmeg1 . Looking better already!
Photo tax: Spent a few hours cleaning out a little 10'x10' garden plot. I've watched a couple videos of guys who use mulched leaves over their garden beds and I wanted to give it a try.
Also I'm paying for the sins of whoever made this little garden bed. They used plastic weed barrier which is now disintegrating. They also left 3 stumps and just covered them with the weed cloth. AND they also planted mint which was going wild in there

Cut back and winter prep for this trident maple field grown by Dylan Ferreira of Cedar Rose Nursery. This will be the winter out of the ground.

I'm gonna make my greenhouse sides removable so I can just convert it into a pergola during the summer. They get too hot in the summer to be of use to me.

This tree languished after working it a few years ago. It grew well this year so I took out some length and thinned a good bit, aiming to keep what’s buffed on the interior. Reused wire and added one more in the apex. This tree needs lots of cutback but should allow for that next year. A bit of soji should see the soil thru one more year.
Once it’s growing like I want I will likely remove a lower branch or two.

R'cvd 10 twigs in the mail.
3 white flowering dogwood, 3 eastern redbud, 2 Sargeant crabapple, 2 Hawthorne.
I have a few days off, so tomorrow they will be put to bed until spring.
That darn work just gets in the way of playtime.
These, and some other nursery purchases, are enough to get my collection started.

Getting our first snow of the year...lame...but means tree digging season is coming up.
Photo tax, Serviceberry I picked up on clearance at a landscape nursery for 50 percent off last week, base is a few inches across. I chopped back and pulled some limbs around on a bit yesterday.

I mowed the lawn in my bald cypresses pot. I’ve had 3 or 4 different types of grass pop up and they’re quite fun, so I’m going to see what happens if I prune them by “pinching” like you would on a spruce.
Looking really good! This looks like it’ll be ready to take another 50% this growing season.

I agree, pushed it back to maybe 2 ft and sealed it well, was about a 5 ft bush when I picked it out and didn't want it taking up that much space in my shed this winter.
Photo tax, Colorado spruce I'll be picking up on my next days off of work.
