Picea abies - Spruce yamadori - "First" - (owner Mirek Škrabal)

Hi all bonsai friends


This old Spruce Yamadori we colected with Mirek in April 2007. Mirek had of finding a real pleasure. It is seen in the photo.
Spruce has grown very well. First we worked on the styling end of 2008.

Hi all

Today I worked on the restyling of Spruce. Spruce grew very well after the first styling. There are a lot of new branches and quality. I think after today's work is a tree one step further.

Fantastic Tree

Stunning Pavel, you are so talented and what wonderful material. Many I suspect would have passed it by as not suitable.

i didn't notice the next lot of pictures after 2008! what a nice suprise. looking even better.
if your friend gets bored of it he can send it to england, would look great on my bench!!!

Hi Pavel,

one of the pictures clearly shows that the spruce's first branch could be a very convincing and appealing apex. have you considered giving the tree two clear, separate apexes at all? or was that not an option for some reason?

it's a fine tree in any case anyway!

Hi Jonny
Thank you for nice replies. Yes, the bark is really great and strong.

Hi Giomach
Thank you for your nice replies. Yes, the concept of the second the top, I had the original idea. But the tree was very large and concepts in the space would be bad. Instead I decided to show and highlight an interesting branch in space. Tree crown is clean and smooth with a distinctive space.
