Hornbeam "Raft" Yamadori 2006

Hi friends.

The Hornbeam I colected in 2006. Two years later he became part of the collection of my friend.
Today I finished the first shaping of the tree. I think that their friend Mirek Hornbeam more interesting with a big future. What do you think?

even better

Very pronounced and strong character Carpinus! Usual for you. Noticed that Shari would be darker, and the top of the big tree to look at smaller tree.

Hello,

Trés bô cet arbre, peut-être un peu moins haut??

I really like the tree and the composition is good, only thing is - you notice the shari first - it it too white and needs some refinement once that is achieved the whole thing will be fantastic keepup the good work.

Lovely tree….but the white shari needs to be toned down. Why not use a wood preservative that gives a more natural colour to the dead wood as seen in lowland trees?

Thank you all for your nice comments.

Yes, white is not initially pleasant nor typical.In a few months to change.Due to the high humidity Hornbeam wood is very spoiled.Should be carefully impregnated products.I use classic Jin-liquid first paint - concentrated. On the second mix Jin-Liquid + CUpaste in a tube (it is good for treatment of pruning branches). This mix well impregnated the dead wood, which extends into the substrate.

Hi Tona
Thank you very much for your nice compliments.
Greetings Pavel

Hi Pavel
Very nice work, the progression is good to see, hornbeam respond nice and quickly

this is my product to preserve bare wood, and as you see can it makes a very natural colour if used on its own

I think the best colour for deciduous trees is their own natural wood colour, with some black or grey used deeper inside to make the hollow mysterious

Hi Marcus

The wood looks terrible weath....will it stay like that for 3 years, or are it only the first 3 weeks...maybe you have a photo to show us.

Kind regards Yvonne

Hi Pavel.
Love ya work and this tree but after studying this work I wonder if you could explain your thinking on a couple of things.
The upper trunk is very long and often very straight. Then you have branches crossing over each other that come from bar branching and inside curves.
I am not suggesting this is wrong but I can see ways that seem to me could aviod this situation while still keeping the caotic feeling that I am sure you can also see so I was hoping you could put some of your thoughts on this into words.
Kind regards
Brett

I love your tree.

Hi Yvonne

it is still wet !!!! picture was taken straight after brushing it on to show the product, not the fished effect .The protection of the wood is the first and most important stage as this ensures the future of the tree - after the first stage you make the wood look good - as this is a driftwood juniper it was lime sulphar - here it is looking nice and protected for 3 years


cheers Marcus

Hi Marcus

You are right, it seems to work very well on a juniper, if it afterwards is being treated with limesulphur.

I normaly use " woodharder" it is a product you dont see 10 minits after you painted it on....very usefull for ALL kinds of trees...this product also makes slightly rotten wood hard.....paint it on once a year.

Kind regards Yvonne
