Gets a bit larger, soon to have tours? Serious always great to see your area(s) - I appreciate how time consuming that all is for certain and your ability to keep it subtle ;)

I was expecting lichen or moss growing. What a surprise! Lovely collection you have.

This one had me drooling...history on it?

Also liked the weeping tree...just because the style caught my eye early on in my bonsai walk.

It's always a treat to see some nice trees in nice surroundings! Thanks for sharing.

Do you have more details on the one in circle?

The tree was a super lanky ugly thing in a maybe 18" opening in a sidewalk. One of three. It had three or four arms initially. My secret source aka my yard guy cut them out in front of a guys office and threw all three over my fence. When I first saw them I just laughed because I thought they had no chance. They had these little square chopped rootballs from cutting out with a Sawzall and only a few inches deep. The main trunks on two of them were chopped off and a smaller branch that had closer in foliage was chosen as the 'tree' going forward. They lived! I did two like that and left the other to grow. Undecided on its future. This was about 18 months ago. Got em healthy and both were given their initial styling by Bjorn about a month ago.

The rock planting is just some small mixed trees and some diff sedums. The trees are blue point and Parsonii Juniper a small yew and an ilex. I think there are 5 trees and the moss and stuff has grown in well. Probably been together about 2 yrs.

@choppychoppy ... That is just...WOW MAN! Unbelievable that the final image I see before me came from such material. Bjorn did the original direction then. Man...making the decision to place it in his hands...patting you on the back. Unbelievable...still rubbing my eyes on how they are the same material...and the story! Thanks for sharing it with me/us here.

What is that weeping species? Just curious by the way...
