Hi All,
I had some excess stock and thought I'd do a few forests today with the less attractive and younger trees. They are in the current pots to make them somewhat presentable to public even if they won't be for sale for quiet awhile, hopefully I will move a couple of these settings into some stone slabs in future.
The white pebbles are suppose to represent water in the Trident setting and a path in the Dawn Redwood forest
I don't know if will be able to achieve the look I want with the windswept forest but I'll see what happens.
I will post more pics when in leaf.
The Larix I think need further thought, maybe I will get a few more of them, they are nice trees.

Re: A few forests
I like the redwoods too
the 9 tree maple one looks nice too but both sides seem a bit symmetrical to me. I know they are not in tree numbers, but the shape and size does

Re: A few forests

Loving the forests, especially the red wood.

Re: A few forests
Thanks for comments guys
One option is to plant these onto a large Mud slate, I have quite a few different pieces and thickness so I could try to construct something a little more unusual.
Or I could make some kind of a Fondue type of a pot, never made one although I think it could get too a bit heavy.
I have ordered a product called Watercrete, which should do the job for either application.
With the Larix I have a few of options and I'm open to suggestions.Jarrod wrote:Where did the Larix go?
