Thuja - request for Christine

Hajo has posted this Thuja, Eastern White Cedar, in the German forum. He has specifically requested that Christine, who does such wonderful virtuals, style his tree.
Let's see.

Re: Thuja - request for Christine

Walter, Reiner's virtual is a nice tree, but I am having a hard time with the differences in the lower trunk [i:94e9ecd1f1](tachiagari)[/i:94e9ecd1f1]. One is very straight, the other has a distinctive curve. Am I seeing two different trees?

Re: Thuja - request for Christine

my apologies, Bonsainut! I've been offliner for several days..

Matt,!!
You are so clever with your computer skills!! I can't compete with this!!--but I certainly agree! I was going to work with the actual posted picture (but have been sidetracked with the American Thanksgiving holiday)- not a fantasy proposition of some imagined yamodori trunk!
This is a rather young tree- I don't see a lot of options unless one goes into fantasy! I'll see what I can do. Later.Maybe tonight!

Re: Thuja - request for Christine

Ok, I have a virtual for Hajo to think about. I tried to keep my design within the realm of plausibility for this tree. Since it is rather young, I reduced the top to a jin, tilted the whole tree, used a side branch as a new top, and removed all the lower branches, to make a mame out of it. It needs a smaller pot now--anyone?

Christine,
with the right size pot it looks cool.
Well done again!

Hi, Matt:

Yes, you're seeing different trees. The image was posted not as a virtual, but as an example of Eastern white cedar bonsai, especially as it relates to foliage containment. However, as virtuals go, it would not have been much further fetched than some. ;-)

Reiner
