Re: My Scotts pines
All nice looking trees Gerard.
I guess #5 is another one of Treeman's creations?
#2 and #3 are almost twins!
I don't have any scotts now. Plenty to do with the few species I do have on the benches and no longer feel the need to have one of everything.

Re: My Scotts pines
Quality trees Gerard thanks again for taking the time to show. Agree with MJ that no.4 really tickles my needlesMJL wrote:Good morning Gerard. Lovely trees - no.4. is the tree that I find most interesting.
. Quite fond of a good drop branch placement.

Re: My Scotts pines
Thanks Mark, has been a difficult tree with bar branches and no lower branches. Workshopped July last year with Mauro in Bendigo lots of raffia heavy copper wire etc. to compress the top of the tree. Wire was removed this week, which was a bit late. Will take a couple of years for the scars to healMJL wrote:Good morning Gerard. Lovely trees - no.4. is the tree that I find most interesting.

Re: My Scotts pines
Definitely see the appeal of #4 but I also lean towards #5 as my personal fav. I’ll just be happy to see my seedlings get anywhere close to any of these in about 5(+ maybe 5) years or so... the clock is ticking, thanks for the inspiration!

Re: My Scotts pines
#5 is another grown by Treeman (he does grow nice trunks, I am looking foreward to seeing what he has for sale at the convention next month) I took it to Bonsai Week in Canberra for a workshop with Sandra Grlica who favours shohin trees. Very short needles and strong budding will give this tree a great future.Ryceman3 wrote:Definitely see the appeal of #4 but I also lean towards #5 as my personal fav.

Re: My Scotts pines
When I do these mass photo sessions it is my intention to have a record of the trees for myself and to show others where i am at. Every time I take a photo and download the image my computer gives a new perspective and often a small nudge....I need to do some work.
