A few more Marco trees

Here are three more trees Marco worked on two shohin JBP's and my only Kishu juniper, a double trunk formal upright. One of my favorite trees. I was on a roll and my battery went kapoot. after a little charging I'll post some more.

All of the trees you posted pictures of are very nice. There wasn't one I didn't like.
Thanks for showing.

Small world Walt, I have a son that lives between Doylestown and New Hope.
How about next time we visit I could invite myself over to see your trees and we could swap lies.

No Irene, those are lichens, trying to remove them would damage the bark.They are prized by the Japanese because they add age to the tree.
