Shhhhh, Don't Tell My Wife!

[Tidal Bonsai]

Today I snuck in two twisted up Shimpaku junipers, and for twisted Japanese beautyberry cuttings into our landscape. See you in five years my friends!!!

Anyone else have any treasure that is growing in their landscape?

Nope... not me?.

Amethyst Falls in training. Started as a whip of a sucker. No rush to remove...allowing to thicken up in the ground. Then will layer it off. Other than pruning...it's little effort to tending them in ground.

My wife doesn’t care about my trees at all. Suddenly, a boxwood appeared and she didn’t even notice.

old flowering quince, Chaenomeles hybrid of some sort, waiting for me to dig out a portion. Though I don't have to sneak around, nobody cares.

I didn't take a picture of all my trees in the ground, just this birch. It's a volunteer that popped up in one of my pots some 4-5years ago. The seedling was pot grown 2 years, some curves introduced... Then it was put in the ground to built some trunk for shohin. Here's the picture, the trunk starts looking interesting and next year I expect more typical white color appear, might start chopping it... or one more year?

Oh, found a picture of one pine seedling, this should be P. rigida, the only surviving.

I have tons of garden trees, and they all get pruned regularly. If and when a tree shows potential, it meets the shovel!
