trophy_prebonsai_yew

 Bought this one during the last trophy in Genk/Belgium from the stand of Danny Use.

A lot of backbudding ist going on this tree. The branches are much too long by now, but hencing the 

backbudding by producing alot of energy for this Taxus. They will be shortened  lately in upcoming

 spring.

Looking foreward for doing a little carving here and there, especially on the scars of cut branches and

 so on.

This particular tree had been very well prepared for further development. Thank you Danny! ...

two years_phases_of_a_Hinoki's_develeopment

 Phase one: The accquired raw-material in 2021...

Phase four as of January 2023: First styling ...


Phase five: Second styling, the tree as of today.


Amd the overblended picture as I showed it before to demonstrate the ration of reduction from the former rawplant to the actual state of development:

taxus_with_deadwood

 I just unwired this one, There are a lot of backbudding going on this yew.

The green part of the tree is by far to large. The carvings definitely need to be overhauled and improved.

I am really lookig foreward for wintertime, when I will wire this yew again.

Here are a few glimpses before  the next designing step.







wind_in_the_Hinoki

 An update of the windswept Hinoki.

What a pity that I can not show this tree with the help of some kind of holographic technique.

I mean, in nature the design of the tree is much more "3d-ish" and does not come as that bushy cluster

shown in the 2d image. But this always a matter of fact ... I designed this tree out of cointainer-material

from a nursery.

This Hinoki would suit very well in a moon-pot or on a stone-slap.

It is for sale, in spite of beeing far from glory. 

Maybe someone becomes attached to this particular tree and is willing to enhance the initial 

design-plan. Anyway, here are the pictures as of today ...

small_and_clean_Thuja

Not much to say about this small Thuja. 

I just wanted to creat a clean design and getting to know

the reaction of this species to certain designing-interventions.

The leaves of this tree will even become smaller in the course of time.

Just a small clean tree ...

This tree will also be sold by the way.

J.blauwii_tanuki_development

 And this is how it went on with one of my tanukis.

Just two years under my control.

It seems, as if the living part is thriving very well. The rest of the wiring will be taken off 

next spring. So far so good. The tree is for sale as well ...
