mountain pine #1

Pinus mugo, European mountain pine, collected in Switzerland. I have started to style it this summer.

Re: mountain pine #1

Christine,

this is fabulous. I have dared to pot the tree. Now it looks exactly as I will do it next year.
Christine, you are a great virtual artist - or is it artist of the virtual? :-)

Re: mountain pine #1

Wonderful virtual, Christine, this is awesome!!

Walter I think the soft, rectangular pot has too much visual mass. Maybe maybe a darker color or using one of the stone-colored pots would help. Ideally, it would be a little smaller, but you have the constraint of the tree's physical width.

I don't like to see the crown so closely match the pot in volume and width

maybe something like this:




or maybe this:


P.S. You will want this link for your virtual pot store:

From www.bonsaimonk.com

here is the catalog link. First page is very ho-hum, but it gets better:
