I decided yesterday to do a little shuffling of trees that had been collected in the Spring. Well, when I say me, I mean my two sons working under my direction.
Most where still in poly tunnels and I wanted to get them out to harden off a bit. The foliage as you can see here shows that most have responded well after collecting. There was a mixture of Scots Pine, Spruce and Larch.
I’m running rather low on space!! Had to add a few temporary benches to facilitate them.
All squeezed in! With trees visiting on holiday care it’s a tight fit!
That’s the story of a bonsaika. More trees, more space needed. A never ending story 🙂

Thanks, It’s a Trident that I’m allowing extra growth this year to increase the foliage mass. I usually defoliate it every year but am trying a different method this year. What you see is new tips as opposed to Autumn colour. It can produce 3 inch tip growth in a week.
