Desert rose hanging out now it's a little warmer. Problem with these is the trunk gets big and I have to move to bigger pot every other year.

A pine is doing ok. Dug up in early spring.

Azalea in training, going second year I think. Buds popping out and getting bigger.

A couple of Elms. The one on right got some carving at chop site. The Dremel has been a great help.

Been kept in larger pot than originally shown in another thread. Picked up originally as seedling thick as a 0.7 filler for pencils. Wired then too.

Just growing roots now. I picture something penjing-like in the future.

Wind blows over a maple? I think it's actually a cat's doing. I pick it up in time before sun dries out the roots of this young Deshojo air layer.

2017 Leaves grew small, but no growth extensions on this Toyo nishiki that's treated with growth regulating chemicals. Curious how it will be next year. I sent @Carol 83 one of these, but some variation in chemical and doses. I think the have only temporary effects, btw.

A ground layer started from May or June. Haven't checked for roots all around yet. I could always graft some on, but maybe I could encourage roots in the meantime. Probably should've removed the other trunk in the back in the spring. Now I'll have to wait for the next spring.
