Masterpiece
I bought this pine from Mr. Adams last August along with an azalea. I was drawn to the long slender trunk with its nice gentle curve . He had other, fatter specimens but this one spoke to me. I'm pretty sure the azalea is now a goner but this pine seems to be doing well. Mr. Adams told me that this tree was growing in the ground until he dug it up last spring. So it has only been in this pot for about a year. I am planning on leaving it be until at least 2017 based on his advice. I had a couple scary moments this spring where the tree blew off the bench that you see in the background. Luckily there was no damage and I was able to just re-fill the top inch or so of soil that spilled out. My solution was to put the tree into this heavier pot with some gravel filled between the 2 pots to keep it in place. Not all that pretty but it's effective.
I'm a little unsure of the future direction of the tree with respect to the branches. It has some bar branches but they don't look bad to me. I was hoping to get some opinions about what direction you would take this tree in if it was yours.
Thanks for looking.
