I don't see many recent posts on group planting. Having decided that this would be my year to create a few new projects centered around 'groups' I have been acquiring some material. And it is time to get my feet wet. Got some nice trident saplings from Bill Valavanis and larches from Pauline Muth and David Easterbrook. Some were workshop trees.
I'm spending weekends in April assembling my groups and I came up with this question : "What defines a clump-style?, or a grove?, a forest?" Is it simply the number of trees used?...the proximity of the base of the trunks? The density? I wonder because when discussing these I want to call them by their correct names.
Can't see the forest thru the clump!
Sorry - I can't post any pics.
