Fraxinus ornus "Jan"

Carpinus betulus "Old Sam"

This hornbeam was repotted recently into a more shallow pot, which looks like it suits him well. The big root which was out of the level of the rest of the nebari was removed and will be carved in a couple of weeks. Branches will be cut back, should have been done already, but during March/April repotting fury, there was time only for minor adjustment. The structure will be developed since it is rather a young tree collected only in 2012. In needs decade to shine. 

Carpinus betulus "Gemini"

Its quite a while since the post about this hornbeam. Yesterday I was removing last dry leaves and did few cuts here and there. I made shots in the occasion. This tree was collected exactly 10 years ago. Obviously, it needs another ten to shine. But I think we are getting there.

Prunus spinosa after repotting into an oval pot. Pot possibly could have been bit smaller but couldn't find the better fit in my pot collection. Flowers expected in a few days.

Larix decidua

Larch freshly out of the winter storage. Now with temperatures attacking 20 °C for a couple of days spring is in full swing, which is both great, partly scary (late frost damage?) and terrible in one go. With such weather one can start repotting right away, it is great time to collect few trees (when? where to place them in an already crowded garden?),  wire like half of the trees, a God knows what else. 

How much I like this spring...

This larch needs editing, especially in the top right section, it has been guy wired whole year but its larch, you can keep doing it annually and it will bounce back soon after you remove wires. Honestly, taking into consideration there are zero wires on it right now, I'm quite happy.
