    Princess Persimmon: Best time to move from grow bed to training pot?

    Princess Persimmon: Best time to move from grow bed to training pot?

    Hey everyone, I have about 10 princess persimmons (male and female) that are all from root cuttings and have been in a grow bed for the last 2 years. I'm located in Raleigh, NC (7b), and trying to determine whether I should be collecting them now and moving to training pots. I have read that...

    When to trench?

    I have a few tridents, Korean hornbeams, weeping cherries that are in the ground now and I want to move them to another area of my yard that has full sun. I assume this process is best done in the spring so I'm wondering if now is a good time to trench the roots so that they start pushing finer...

    Does anyone have photos or examples of cascading Japanese Flowering Quince?

    So can I interpret your comment to mean I need to be digging it in fall and not in spring?

    Does anyone have photos or examples of cascading Japanese Flowering Quince?

    I have a toyonishiki I am going to be digging up in spring that is perfect for cascade style but I wanted to see other examples to get some ideas.

    I styled another monster hinoki cypress this weekend.

    I styled another monster hinoki cypress this weekend. Here is the before and after. La Croix can at the base on the left for perspective on size. This one will also go into a bonsai pot next year. Would love feedback and ideas.

    Can you wedge cut a hinoki?

    I have a hinoki that I wanted to add a bend on a younger trunk. Do they take well to wedge cuts?

    Initial pruning and styling on my new formal upright Hinoki Cypress

    I agree with the reduction of branches in time. Just not ready to do that quite yet. :)

    Initial pruning and styling on my new formal upright Hinoki Cypress

    I did some initial pruning and styling on a new Hinoki Cypress last weekend. This one was a massive tree to work on. It will go into a bonsai pot next spring. Whiskey bottle on the after photo for size. Here is a before and after.

    Years before checking on a trident on a rock?

    Brilliant!! That's what I figured.

    Years before checking on a trident on a rock?

    Unfortunately, I didn't take them as I was making them. The pics now would just be of a acoue of 3 gallon pots with a smudge of rock sticking out. :)

    Years before checking on a trident on a rock?

    After putting a trident on a rock, how many years before you check on it? I placed two on rocks this last spring and figured it was a two year wait before checking but wanted to confirm. I used the method of draping the roots over then adding sphagnum round the roots and plastic wrap, tightly...
