Both?
Mountain Laurel?Probably nobody wants to bother, after all everyone knows only conifers matter.
Here's a something else from coniferland.
What kind of material is this?Probably nobody wants to bother, after all everyone knows only conifers matter.

Ah yeah, I'll bet that's what it is. Another cold weather plant that won't survive down here.Looks like potentilla...
Very cool and definitely unique!Wasn't really ready to show this one...ah what the hell..
Flowering pear
The tree is really nice but the bark is spectacular!40yr old pieris japonica dug from a landscape.
Agreed! Niiiice bodThe tree is really nice but the bark is spectacular!
Thanks for sharing! Love the red of the first flush! Have you ever tried defoliating this? Reasoning for me asking, is that if you ever go to show it, would be awesome to show with the red. Often with some material one will go through and defoliate about a month or less before the show, to show off this feature.I guess the closest I can come to "non coniferous yamadori" is the willow oak I got from former bnut member Jay Wilson last fall. Spent this summer learning how it responds to cut-backs. Need to do some thinning of the top and start introducing some more asymmetry into the canopy. Enjoyable tree to work with so far, spring growth flush (first photo, April 2015) is a beautiful red color.

Cool! The green leaf manzanita has leaves a lot like our buttonwoods down here. Thanks for sharing!Guess these are redundant. But will repost pics anyway.

View attachment 89329 View attachment 89330 Green leaf manzanita collected last May. Adjusted well enough that I wired it late summer.
Have only had it for this year, so haven't tried defoliating. I can say, though, that it was vigorous enough to require cutting back 3 times during the growing season. The new growth that resulted from each cut-back was nowhere near as red as that first spring growth. Not sure if defoliation would have a different effect. Should be interesting to see if next spring the growth is as red.Thanks for sharing! Love the red of the first flush! Have you ever tried defoliating this?

Man... no one wanting to represent where their from or the type material they have available?
This is a Wild Tamarind that I have been working for some time... This tree was collected from nature here in Florida. It is a compound leaf tree, which can be pressing sometimes! and quite hard to work with. At night their leaves close up and wilt, when day comes they pop back open and up.
I have done a substantial amount of work on this tree, and I am currently working on it's ramification, which has come really far in the past year. It is hard to get a comprehensible photo of what is going on within the tree at the moment, due to me allowing certain areas to grow to build more branching. Also, I am just letting it go till spring to get through the winter and build up new energy. So most of the negative spacing within the tree has filled in. Come spring, I will cut it back. First and second photos are from tonight. In the first you can see, where I am allowing some of the newer branching to run free to catch up to the size of the branching I currently have. Second, shows a little better the interior of the tree. Last Pic, is from this summer.

Cool trunk! The leaves are diferent than the one I have. But its going in the ground, not a pot. Maybe try moringa if you like compound leaves.

This is actually a Lysiloma latisiliquum a species of tree in the pea family often it is refer to or known as false tamarind or wild tamarind, but in all actuality it is not really a Tamarind.Cool trunk! The leaves are diferent than the one I have. But its going in the ground, not a pot. Maybe try moringa if you like compound leaves.
Thanks for sharing! The Lantana are very easily rooted, and often when collected, are just cut right at the round, rather than dug.POS but a gift from an old friend.
Dang thing looks like it is gonna make it; so I can't even take the "well you know I told you it might not make it being dug that rough and all . . . " Some sort of Ilex
and showing its butt.
Some lantana that are also a POS. However they are only to supply cuttings from. All these pics are weeks/months old.
But all of it rescued from the power chopping gardening service or a necessary french drain installation on the other hand.
