Masterpiece
While I’ve worked with JBP seedlings and other species of pines before, I’ve never actually had a good project JBP. This will be my first real venture into the species, certainly looking forward to learning. I acquired this at the Winter Silhouette show from the Valavanis’ sales table; of which Mrs. Valavanis was manning at the time, who is such an outstanding individual, I really enjoyed talking with her. More than willing to share her wealth of knowledge.
I don’t know it’s age, but it’s just starting to show the beginnings of nice bark already so I’ll take that as a very good sign. As it sits, it has at least two potential fronts; pictured though is only one of them, the other side is too dense to show off. Maybe I’ll have some time to sit down and clean it out for a few pictures later this week.
As far as a plan for development, I’ve not had the tree long enough to create a solid plan yet, although I do have some ideas. Any suggestions are always welcome. I’ll be shuffling through the JBP link thread in the meantime.
