a days work

Post by Matthew »

Today was windy and cold, than sunny than raining than windy again i think it got to 8 here but i did get out even with the flu and did something. Ill have to take more pics as when i downloaded them alot are missing. somehow i must of deleted them to make more room on the camera to take more pics :oops: :roll: anyway both JBPs were grown from 6 inch stock 3 years ago making them about 7-8 years i guess / First hard cut back and restyle for both the informal had sacrifice branches to get a decent trunk thickness basic branches are there time for the fun now 3 years and we may have something. Also repotted a 20 year old pine was staying too wet for my liking but rootball looked fine with white roots. A couple shohin broom elms a little japanese larch more to come...... :)

G'day Noah, still hard at it I see. Your lucky to have some rain free weather to work in, it hasn't stopped here, I thought it might snow today.
