Vance wood, The tree was soaked before going in to winter storage, after that i laid snow on top of the soil so it could melt on days when temps where warmer, and when i saw it had all melted i put on some more a day or two later, it have worked fine for me every year with my other trees, but...

Wireme, it was super hard to even get a chopstick in to the root ball by hand, just as hard to get it out... and the root ball was bone dry even do i did water it just some days ago, and i did water it good and long.. Well now i did what i did, stupid maybe, will see i guess... this can very...

Thanks for the answers guys :) I took the root ball out the pot and it was a dry brick, hard as stone with dried thin white roots around, this tells me that water could not penetrate the soil and was running along the side of the pot, or water did penetrate but stayed there casing rot (may be...

Hello all! :) I hope i am posting this in the right place. Have a BIG problem here and really need help :( i bought this San Jose Juniper from KaizenBonsai late last year since i wanted a Juniper in my collection and the price was right. It was looking fine when i got it, not great but...

Friends have imported trees from country's both inside and outside the EU without problems. From what i understand the reason why David at FukuBonsai did not want to send to my country is that the cost would be to high for just one tree, even do i would gladly pay what ever shipping would be i...

Hello all, Trouble in the garden never ends! :( Just gave water to one of my scots pine i collected some months ago, and as i was watering many small yellow/brown and a few black insects started to come crawling up from the soil, like they where avoiding the water, same even started to...

Thanks Bill and Mcpesq817, then no more superthrive for my pines! i feel stupid to say the least... So maybe superthrive can have caused this condition that looks like fungal style disease (needle cast, needle blight, brown spot disease) So what do you guys recommend i do now, just wait and...

Hi Bill, thanks for replying :) The 2 scots pine where collected from a cliff early this spring. The one on the second photo i had to cut some very long thick roots on site since they where going down a crack in the cliff, then i just washed of alittle of the compact soil and losen the rootball...

The whole trees if someone want to see :)

Hello, I have 2 big scots pine that i collected early this spring, both are growing and show no sign of stress since collected, except for what looks to be "Needle blight", "Brown Spot Disease" or "Needle cast" or a combo of some, or all 3... Also my Eastern White Pine has the same thing, but...

Smoke, after reading some more about oxymoron, i found that its a form of insult? :eek: i am so sorry if it sounded like one! I would be very glad if you would like to drop by my other thread in "Stands" and tell me what you think. (you where joking about the "made in usa" right?)

Alex, thank you for the kind words about the tree :) i have not gotten the tree home yet, the seller (bonsaipotter.com) cant send it since its to cold here at the moment. But iam sure the pictures cant do the tree justice, and i cant wait to see it my self in person :D It will be the crown of my...

Smoke, sorry english is not my first language, so i had to look up what "oxymoron" is, and i guess it was one? if so, not ment to be. Just wanted to say it say Japan on the other side. and if it sounded rude or anything it was not ment to be that either.

Smoke, haha you must be joking? :confused: it says Japan in clear english on the other side....
