JBP 2009 Where Do We Go From Here
The below pictures show a EVERGREENGARDENS Rough Bark Trident This tree is currently in my garden. The base of the tree is about 5 inches. Tree stands about 9 foot tall. This spring I intend to layer 5 or 6 branches for new trees. ( OUTSTANDING VARIETY FOR BONSAI ) After layering tree will be pruned back for basic shape and allowed to grow out in garden for 2-4 more years. During this time tree will be pruned back at least one time a year for shape. When I am satisfied with trunk size and taper, I will remove from the ground. Tree will then grow out for 1-3 years before going into bonsai container.
Some Pines just take longer than others My guess is about 5-7 more years today root work and still working taper Changed pots--now is the time to work on height and ramification always fun to build your tree Steve
