Hi everyone

This is my White Pine (Addcocks Dwarf) that I worked on with Peter Adams when he was here, A bit late in posting sorry about that.
Still in need if fine wire & a nice pot.

Cheers

skip awsome tree mate. it will look awsome when that crown fills in.

nebari is excellent and the graft looks pretty tidy aswell.

jealous

haha i cant grow them up here as far as i know. wish i could they are beautiful trees when styled well as this one illustrates

kind regards jarryd

Dam I hope the update is following I was looking forward to seeing how it is going.

AWESOME tree mate! love it! It looks perfectly natural! I think that a nice deep, robust, brown, mat coloured pot.

I would love to see Peter's picture of the tree.

Love it Skip. That is a reasonably large tree and being a white pine is also a reasonably rear species in Aus bonsai, so more congratulations. I would also be interested to see the pot that Peter has recommended.
Great start, lets see it progress.

PS - Can you afford the recommended pot?

I never thought one could like a bloke and be jealous of him at the same time...

I`ll say it again...damn you skip..

Ad.

Hey Watto
Im going to sell one of my kids to buy the pot.

Cheers

Really nice tree Chris

Unless the window and the person I can see in it are both minature, then this is a serious sized tree

Good luck with it - I hope you have some students to wire it for you.

Regards
Steve

Nice effort Skip,
can post one of Peters' Vision for the tree?

Ken

wow that one's a beauty

gotta be happy with that

Nice white pine Skippy. Its very hard to see a good example of white pines in Australia. I did have one that i worked > on to severely and it carked it. I have found them to be a bit touchy and not predictable like the black pine. I have a few i am experimenting on. Are you going to leave it that leggy or is the plan to make it a little more compact?. Enjoy it.

Hi All
Thanks for you nice coments, I had the tree in my collection for 3 years before I started to work it, I was told the white pine was a little touchy in Sydney so I needed to be certain of the care needed for the tree & that it would be alright in my climate. The tree is quiet big & cost me a fair bit & is very unique, I plan to complete the wire & styling this summer & pot it in late Autumn. I have attched Peters drawing which I requested be in black & white as i prefered this to colour.
Hope you all like it.

Cheers
Chris

It's great to see these thanks Skippy. I think you guys came up with a great plan for this tree. Can't wait to see it potted up

nice work skip, i love the vision of where this one is going! cant wait to see some more progression on it

great tree and i bet it cost a mint too man i wish i had something like that but my climate would probly kill it quicker than chopping it at the base and pouring petrol on it.

great work again love it.
