small spruce

[wireme]

Nice little tree, is it Englemann or White Spruce?

Hard to say for sure as both exist where I collected this one, also hybrids are common.
Looks like straight up englemann to me though.

A few small tweaks this am, just loading here so I can view and compare on something other than the busted up phone screen.

Sweet little tree Tommy, I wouldn't have guessed it was so small. Really nice pairing with the little slab too, better match than my tree/rock combo.

Spring flush is out. Ha, funny little tree, I like it! Probably not going to be easy to maintain at this size but so far so good.

I like it a lot. Sitka Spruce?

Thanks Vance, glad to hear you like it.

I think it's an englemann spruce.

It's coming along very nicely, I like it a lot.

I like - if you could define a little aged structure in the branches it would look rather stiking for how small it is!

I guess I got no more faves!

You are my fave!

Exactly! That is the goal, what I will work towards. Not easy given the scale, needle size, foliage blocking the view of the structure.,,
I will try.

Night shot and playing with photo effects. I just loaded a photo editing ap into the phone hoping it would allow me to create virts. Nope, but I can turn my trees purple now, that's a start.
Anybody know of an iPhone ap that will work for virts?
