Communication can be sometimes rather difficult, don't you think so!!??
No physical styling has been done at that time with Joe. We only discussed different options etc...... so no images after!!
May be some other time!!

Nice trees. Just about all my pines are from seed. 4 0 years plus now.

Thanks Mick,

Wow forty years you must have quite a collection there!!! Would be nice to see some images.

Cheers

Wonder how the trees are looking now. Is that Joe on the left side i think i saw him in the last show in WA..he also was selling some pre bonsai

I can't see Joe M-P in that photo so I guess those 2 studious faces must both be sandgropers.

That is Joe on the right, he did not have stock for sale as quarantine regulation do not allow it

So it is - under all that winter pelt I didn't recognize the face. Winter in Ballarat must have been colder than usual this year.

I know I run the risk of being all pedantic and everything, but you realise that shot was from 2016 right??
Imagine those pines now... and Joe!

Hi Ryceman,

That's what they look like at the moment, well .......some of them!!
Still a lot of work has to be done regarding design, refinement, needle reduction and ramification.
You'll probably see them at the 2021 WBC in Perth WA!!!!
I guess I will see you there???
Actually Joe was here this weekend!!

Cheers
Rolf

This one I worked with Joe yesterday!!

Love those pines Rolf!
Look forward to seeing them (and you) in 2021 with a little luck... very nice job developing these, I’m sure like a lot of stuff they look even better in person.
Thanks for the updates!
