update_linden_clump

And an update of the linden_clump.
Repotted this spring, so from now no major works untill late summer.
Just Clip and grow. There will be a carving session in autumn to make the
trunc-relicts more intrgrated in the overall-design.




 

The original clump of 2013/14

curly_yew

Another Taxus-project. A Taxus baccata freshly taken out of the field.
In 2016 I "twisted" the thin trunc with wire.
I wanted to provoke a curled, uneven look of the trunc.
Now the yew is sheduled to establish within the traing-pot for abut two years.
A first, humble designing of the branches will we done in autumn this year.

Ehm ..., by the way, the third pictures shows a MC (Music Casette) as a scale.
(This was a nagnetic data storage device people used a very long time ago to record music on ...)
