Here’s one I’m working on. I have another nana somewhere but can’t find the pics right now, also very new to me. This one is a ‘templehof’ variety. Still curious how it handles, though what I read was not entirely positive, this was only $40. I took it back in stages, not sure how tolerant they were, last year I managed to repot and do another pruning and first styling. I may slip pot it this spring just to get rid of the aweful bucket, but otherwise going to let it grow and be healthy for at least a season.

I have been ill, and un-able to do a lot. I hope to have the opportunity to post my total efforts for the last two years this spring. We are still having winter weather and I can't get to my trees.

Glad to see you back, hopefully your health issues have been resolved or at least are getting better.

Before and after on a 5 dollar bargain bin Hinoki. I was super excited about the first styling. Sadly I’m worried the repetitive frost thaw we got this winter my have dried it out. Hoping it pulls through.

Took a class today with Sean Smith near Harrisburg PA. Initial styling to my 35 dollar wells special into something befitting the name. Very happy with how this tree came out. Even more excited to see how it develops.

Sadly the photos don’t fully do it justice.

Now to find a nice pot to dress it up!
