... as raw-material of course.
Two years ago i visited a nursery in a suburb of my home-town.
A small Taxus baccata laid aside a road on the nursery-yard, wich had obviously been run over by a
tractor or such. The little tree was in a very poor state, but i thought, what a pitty, one should try to
develop something out of almost less than nothing.
As i asked the manager to buy this unlucky specimen, he looked at me in the most compassionated
way and said : "Well Sir, its a gift ... ."
Maybe this man considered me for being an absolut mad-man (or rather an utter fool), but anyway,
here I go with my Taxus.
Formerly the yew had two stems and a whole lot more branches but most of them were broken.
So I decided to go for a very reduced design from scratch.
