Re: Fall hornbeam
Nice Tom.....
... it has definitely an African feel about it...I can see that the Elephants have been at it, stripping the bark of the saplings...

Re: Fall hornbeam
Thanks to you all....I appreciate your input. John: please try not to get discouraged....we all lose trees from time to time. I do keep a few tropical at the university greenhouse during the winter months...most of them, however, reside in my garage under fluorescents during the cold weather.
Best, Tom

Re: Fall hornbeam

do i recall you having some other trees in this style... ?
ones that wouldnt normally be styled in what i can only think of as: "Savanna Style"

The "Savanna style" darling Kevin is called the Pierneef.

Re: Fall hornbeam
i have heard of Pierneef as a painter, but didnt know he had more than an inspirational influence on some bonsai stylings...

Actually, he was a S. African landscape artist who specialized in landscapes designs that looked African. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobus_Hendrik_Pierneef

Re: Fall hornbeam
Indeed, Jim.....This guy is only 7.5 inches in height.....I wish the same company made them in a more "grown up" size....10 inches in height would have been ideal. Maybe someone will chime in regarding a possible source for such an item.
Thanks.
Tom
Thanks.
