First rough styling hugely influenced by the book by Qingquan Zhao - literati penjing that I have been enjoying through the winter.

I would call this a succesfull first styling sir!

Bringing it back to the essence and creating a convincing image of a group of old pines... have I already told you that I think you're pretty good at this?

Love the tree!! cant wait to see the progression

Thank you lads for the compliments
I will transfer the tree carefully onto a rock slab shortly - kind of slip potting - when I find the right one for it.
I am lucky that it grew on a concrete one and the rootball is totally flat and wasn?t really disturbed when I just lifted it and cut around it at the "collection" last year.

Wow great first styling. Congrats. Keep us updated

One day... :ohmy:

I had to rewire this one and other pine 2 times already since it was styled for the first time due to heavy watering and fertilizing.
Some branches were cut, old needles removed and arches on branches improved a bit.
Another month and all of the branches should be firmly set in positions.
Now I am hoping for a few years of strong backbudding to make it nice and compact
Repotting onto a slab will have to wait till next year. I didn?t get me the right slab fot it.

Some rewiring has been done.
Now the wires will stay on the tree till spring at least.
I will scout for the right slab through the winter.

Absolutely amazing. You ve got an eye for this art. Can't wait to see them years later.
