Update of the little, curly Taxus baccata.
This photo is of January 2016. Diameter of the "trunc" roughly 0,34 in.
Not even the diameter of a regular pencil.

The Yew had been into field-culture for three years.

Pictures of the tree as of today ...

The story of a Hemlock.
Maybe a bit too even and "sprucy" but do not forget,
the tree is on its very first styling-level ...

The whitish part shows the actual tree within the raw-material.

After another styling session.

The tree over all is now smaller, the crown is denser and the branches are better set.

After branch selection:

The initial styling, find "the smallest tree" ...
The stumps of the former substems will be carved in a couple of month.

And here an update of the Prunus serotina ...
The crown seems to be a bit to "twiggy", I mean the branches are very thin.
But there is a huge amount of buds. Next flushing in spring will bring a whole lotta energy into the ramification to thicken the twiggies ...
And for all of the european audience: The tree is for sale. You will rarely find another specimen of Prunus serotina this size with a Kevin Wilson carving ...

Hello again!
I mean, I have had shown this particular tree in the thread "acer_cpmpestre_senoir".
Anyway, here comes an update of the field-maple still on a very raw stage.
The christmas-tree-shape is out of the question utterly inappropiate.
' Will be improved and adjusted in near future ...

 

And little friends dwelling in a branch-fork ...
