    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    Those a real nice Vance. Thanks for sharing! Yeah, these two were a pretty lucky fall-find. They were the only two left at the nursery and one was even half price. I'm sure they will be fun to work this summer. It's going to take some courage but there is good inspiration in Vance's videos...

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    Great! I think a progression album would be so valuable for a lot of people, especially seeing as one can find pictures of our 'finished' trees floating around the internet, that are really beautiful! It would be great to see the process of those creations. Regarding the sound on the video, I...

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    Oh right. I didn't catch that in the video - perhaps I did not listen carefully enough (Sometimes when you move away form the camera it is quite difficult to hear what you say). But great. That was the main answer I was looking for - mugos will be worked in the summer. I'll be back with updates...

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    The video looks good Vance, thank you. I'm gonna go through them and see how you do. Regarding the time of year - when are you doing this kind of work? Is it a late summer or spring job?

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    Yes it certainly seems so! The article with the collection of his writings is really good, but perhaps it needs a little bit of info on how to deal with raw nursery stock. this is what I'm hoping he can help with at least :)

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    man, thanks for your time Vance. It all sounds good. Here they are today. The are buried in the ground, though still in the pond baskets, because I do not have a whole lot of room where I live my self (I'm a balcony bonsaist for now).

    By the way I'm in Denmark, something like a zone 7.

    Photos of the two. They come out extremely large. I apologize for that. Is this enough? Photos were taken in the fall.

    Mugo 'Varella': When to the first hard/formative pruning

    So, I have been reading and re-reading Vance Woods article/write-up on mugos, and I have a question, that, by my reading, is not directly addressed in this otherwise absolutely excellent piece. I bought two mugo-pines, nursery stock, of the variety 'Varella' (according to the nursery), last...
