Prunus Spinosa final pot
Last weekend Terry Foster helped me repot this lovely little Blackthorn. It was quite a challenge to position the tree exactly as I wanted. I removed a large 'stump' at the base of the rootball as new roots had grown nearer the curve at the top (Bottom) of the tree. A hole was drilled through the base of the trunk and wired to a piece of wood that was used to stabilise the tree above the rim of the pot.
This fantastic pot is from my Belgian buddies Rene and Marleen Lecocq this link is to their kiln set up.
Looks like I will need yet another cascade table for Dugg Mudd

Here are two details of the great natural shari


The 'styling' of the tree will take place when the new growth is well underway. I am not sure I will keep the lower branch, IF I keep it the position must change as currently it it too vertical.

Tony...Did you have this Blackthorn in mind when buying this pot..The match between pot and bark is just perfect.

Re: Prunus Spinosa final pot
Wot a Blackthorn Tony, I can't wait to see it in the flesh.
Great choice of pot. Andy introduced me to Rene and I came home with one of his little pots for my semi cascade Cotoneaster.
I love the rustic banding effect that he has produced on this range of pots.
Hope to see you soon Tony and I haven't forgotten your 5 euros

Re: Prunus Spinosa final pot
Hi Bob, I was searching the whole weekend at Noelanders for a pot for this Blackthorn and late on Sunday Andy (Stone Monkey) and I were chatting to Rene and Marleen are I was buying 'Red' glazed pots for accents. THIS pot was buried beneath many on the stand... I choose it specifically for this tree.Bob Brunt wrote:Tony...Did you have this Blackthorn in mind when buying this pot..The match between pot and bark is just perfect.
Terry Foster was sure that we could not get the tree to fit... it does very well.
I Know the styling I will do... and we can discuss at the weekend (Sunday morning... NOT erecting the greenhouse.. just having fun)
See you then

Hi Tony.
Thanks for posting.
Very pleasing tree and pot, together they make a winning combo.
Morea is making Dragon a best in show tree/pot combination award for our society show in June 2010.
If you can get the foliage sorted by then, I reckon as a "honery"
member of Dragon, your B'thorn and Rene's pot would be in with a good chance.

Re: Prunus Spinosa final pot
Excellent combination Tony. The pot looks uncontrived, spontaneous and instinctive. Another beautiful Sloe to boot!

Great Blackthorn and pot combination Tony. I would keep the lowest branch, in order to see secure a nice tapering among others. But I also like the curves it makes, and of course the deadwood. Great!

Re: Prunus Spinosa final pot
It's amazing what you find at a rummage sale
One would swear you had the pot custom made for that tree. Having said that, you know its a great composition
