Spent a couple hours last night thinning it out and setting it up for what I think is the next step. Probably should have done it last year.

Also worked on this little one. I ordered a big pot from Paul Olson last winter and he sent me this little pot for free. Seemed like a good home for this little mugo.

maybe off topic, but English is not my native language: Why is the mugo pine in previous post a little tree in a little pot and not a small tree in a small pot?

Small = little
Little = small
Could be a little tree in a small pot.
Or a small tree in a little pot.
Little = small
Could be a little tree in a small pot.

At least in our language we have rules to prevent confusing situations like this!

Your language has no synonyms? That must be pretty boring.
I wrote that pretty quickly this morning and was not really paying attention. Normally, I would have substituted words like small, short, diminutive, petite, wee, mini, teeny, tiny, weeny, dinky or shrimpy just to give the sentence some more interest. But it's too late now...

There's only one activity that has over one hundred synonyms in our language. And it has nothing to do with growing bonsai......Your language has no synonyms? That must be pretty boring.

This mugo i potted up after i dug it out a garden at work in februari 2017
It had verry little roots and because it was in sandy soil it was barerooted because after collection all the soil basicly fell off.
Couple parts died tough but still some healthy green parts
Its in need of backbudding will it ever become bonsai ish
The tree:
The candles opened up and new buds becoming visible
@Vance Wood
Right me if i am wrong
To stimulate backbudding cut back the new growth back to a couple pair of needles.
Seeing the new buds form does that mean that time is now?

Absolutely, Just need soil. I have a small one in qt./gallon container going right into a deep bonsai pot. It was labeled Pumilla but the needles are shorter than my other two which I believe are pumilla

Happy Fathers Day even if you only have a pet raccoon. Hope the 60+ sink holes up there in Mi avoided your area and Mikes too.
Sorry, I've been plugging along with vacation and laying stone around my fireplace, battling needle cast and Springtail insects,
plus planting some landscape trees, so I've not posted any of the pics I took mid to late May.
I don't remember cutting the wire off, but according to this picture I did.
This Springs lime sulphur is a bit past due, but have some minor carving clean up to do
on a couple shoulders of jins. Appears to need some root grafting, but that's a bit out of my league for now.

I'll show a pic of my two trees to get my ticket punched (rather than inundate everyone with a bunch of pics)
This one I am not sure what direction I will ultimately follow, for now, its keep the tree alive and see what happens.
This picture shows the trunk better. Tree seems to point to a semi-cascade, which happens to also be what I want. Yay me!
I have pictures of from other sides if you guys have nothing better to do then to stare at the same tree that someone else has.
Also, Happy Father's Day to all the father's out there.

Beautiful. I tend to like off the wall type pots for Mugos.

Happy Father's day... I thought I'd give this a go. It seemed to want to be a Cascade so I helped it along. I'll give it a few years like this as I would really like the trunk to bulk up.

Those happened in a place called Ironwood. It's in the Upper Penninsula.
Way far north of me and farther for Vance. .Thankfully.
Thank you for your concern though.

Did you bare root this one in 2016, or does it just look that way in the photo? Original root ball in the pond basket back filled with bonsai soil?
