picea

Did some 'initial styling' mid-Oct. on an Alberta Spruce I picked up at Home Depot, had growth down to the trunk and fairly horizontal branches to go with the really thick trunk, so I figured it was worth a try (and 40 bucks...) The idea was to eventually get a krummholz windswept sort of plant...

Dear forum, My name is Julio, and I would like to say hello to everyone. Let’s have a brief introduction first. For the past years I have developed my bonsai hobby in Spain. Something like 3 years ago I moved to Basel, Switzerland. Last autumn I decided to recap with the hobby here again, so I...

I've just gotten braces, at the tender age of 28. Looking at the 3M wire and brackets slowly rearrange my teeth & face, I can't help but relate to my trees a little. Honestly, the knowledge that this is amounting to something better is the only thing getting me through this discomfort right...

Hi, I do love spruces. Does they suit good into bonsaï ? And remain healthy ? Anyone Care Picea crassifolia ? Thanks for your informations

Title. I mean they do grow from cuttings. Wondering if older wood can be airlayered too, for better nebari. Maybe you have had success airlayering similar Piceas? I find these things for free sometimes, but they have thick roots that grow in circles. Pics just to show what the plant can look...

Been growing without issues until recently. Don't know why. Watered 1 - 2 time daily. Any help is appreciated.

I was up north last week transporting an RV back to Vancouver and wanted to collect a few yamadori in various places along the back to test the conditions they were growing in for a future collecting excursion. I found one place that had some amazing trees. Dozens and dozens of trees worth...

I have a Picea Abies Nidiformis in my garden I need to dig up it is over 3 feet diameter and about 18 inches high, in about 1 foot of good soil then very heavy clay, growing very well. What would be the best time to dig it up and pot it up for a potential bonsai? I will need to fairly...

So I bought 5 piceas I want to make a forest on a slab some day. Probably 3 years from now as the trees aren't the healthiest. 1 and 5 being like half the size of 4 and 5, and 2 being in between 1. This is kinda the order I am thinking by now... but can change in time. Plan: fall year 1...
