Vance Wood
Lord Mugo
This is a Mugo Pine, started from nursery material cut down, root pruned and potted on the same day, Father's Day 2006. The beginning bonsai photo was taken in Aug of this last year, 2007, so you can see that not only did the tree survive the process, it has thrived. The dead wood has to be worked and improved, the form needs another application of wire and foliage pads need to be defined.
The original tree, on the left, was about six foot tall when we began the process. This was done for a club demo. The original tree was obtained from a nursery in a balled in burlap condition, planted in one of my large training planters and allowed to develop a fine root system for a number of years prior to this process.
The tree is now about eighteen inches tall from the soil level.
