Third Project – informal upright

Fourth Project – two separate cascade one styled one will styled next winter.





this is the one with first styling



This one will get first style in winter or following one

There is one more in basket as formal upright and two other one in ground but I don’t have pictures 🙂

This beech has been in my collections since May 2012 in one pot and one mix so I decided it is time to check roots system and make some corrections if needed


overall view-before






all around nebari




all around roots ball. As we can see there is lot of fiber roots but they are to fare from trunk so I need to prune they quite hard to bring they closer to the trunk





after potting I have found that there is lot of empty spaces which need to be increase with numbers of fibers roots so i decided pack this spaces by sphagnum moss



will check it next spring
