As usual, an inspiration. Thanks, Walter.

Everything looks so natural!
It is amazing indeed!
If one exempts the pots the trees alone give the feeling they are coming out of a forest!
Thank you for sharing with us, Sir!
The hollow dead tree in this photo planted on to the natural stone, is it completely dead or are there any live parts at the backside perhaps... may I ask.
Would you mind sharing one or two words about it, please.
Thank you!

Thank you for your reply.
I did miss this Spruce of yours Mr. @Walter Pall
It's probably the "noisy" background which prevented me from figuring the tree as a whole...

Great inspiration.
Also, If I may ask...I have some large logs and am making stands much like your poles, how do you go about securing them to ground as to not blow or be knocked over...curious what others do. Do you also secure the containers to the top as well, or the weight of them is enough?
Great stuff, and a sidenote I always find myself looking back at your A. black pines for inspiration...they are a tough tree too!

I purchase the fat poles from a farmer around the corner for US$ 3 each, delivered to my lawn. Then Ii roll them to the spot and pull them up. With a shovel I make sure they stand vertical. i place my tree onto them and that's it. I have used hundreds of these. Dangerous are only cascades or other very one sided trees. These could be blown off by the wind or - very dangerous - the snow makes them fall down. Otherwise no problem. No earthquakes here. Storms up to 85 mile per hour we do have sometimes. No problem. After five years I throw away the old poles and replace them with new ones.
Wow, im surprised and pleased. I have a bunch to use, but have been hesitant for reasons I mentioned. I would say we have similar weather, New England US. With you putting Expensive creations on them with confidence, than I will not worry with my growing trees.
I see so many cement the "monkey poles" in the ground, and thought I might have to with these. The size and girth helps I assume. I have begun making my own rock pots, with inspiration from a mutual friend(D.Popp) whom I believe you have used some of his creations for trees. So they are usually heavier which helps in grounding them.
Thank you for replying and am a big fan of your work.
any hints on trunk chopping Austrian pines? all at once or in stages? got 3 large ones to cut this winter, unless you suggest otherwise.
Anyway, THANKS

Austrian Black Pines can be chopped back all at once. There must be enough green left though. They will not bud out of old wood!

Awesome. #bonsaigoals
Is it safe to assume, ABP can/should be chopped in winter? Got 2 ready for the chopping block, still nervous on where to do it, but will probably leave excess and carve as needed. I am also thinking of doing a Uro/hollow on one, again, I assume same time of year.
and tips are greatly appreciated.

ABP can be cut whenever you have a tool ready.
I have all the supplies, tools, and even some time...what I come up short on his the nerve/backbone/ or balls to go through with it, hahaha. But I am determined within the next few months, they are getting the proverbial CHOP!
thanks AGAIN!!
thanks AGAIN!!
