Chamaecyparis Pisifera Bulevard - Update

Incredible tree, very well done.

Ryan, thanks. I'm glad you like the tree.

Robert, I measured the tree and here are the exact dimensions. The hight with the pot is 92cm (10 cm is the hight of the pot). The widest part of the tree is 75 cm.

Cheers, roland

Thank you Roland for information about the height of the tree

Regards,
Robert

Hello Roland.
Looks good.
With the pot color you choose to accentuate the red in the trunk.
My sawara took our winter not as good as your tree i see.

I like the tree, especially after so little work has been done on it, It will certainly can improve over time.

I think the pot should be an unglazed pot.

It's a pincher's dream. I never got to excited about Chamaecyparis Pisifera Boulevard as a bonsai but you were lucky
to find this one, it has almost perfect branch structure.

This is quite lovely! I just acquired a couple smaller specimens of this species (maybe 50 cm tall). Might you have any tips from your experience with this tree? I'm aiming for a similar style but on a smaller scale.

That is a really nice tree Roland! Great job! And I too Gary have been reluctant to give this tree another try as it didn't backbud at all for me. Very aggravating! Seems Roland didn't have a problem with this issue though it seems??

None of the Chamaecyparis seem to bud back well. I work with Chamaecyparis obtusa nana gracilis so I tend to keep a lot of branches at the start pruning them back slightly
then see what sprouts. Not much at all.

Dear IBC members. The development of the Chemacyparis continues and here is the photo of the current image of the tree.



Fore and Gary sorry for my late reply. I don't have much problems with back buding with this tree, my recipe is to feed it a lot, provide with lots of light and the right timing of pinching. I leave the tree in spring to grow free and get strong, later in the beginning of summer i prune first the strongest areas, than the middle strong areas in a couple of weeks later and the inner weak areas i don't prune or pinch at all.

cheers, roland

Great tree Roland.

Nice Chamaecyparis Pisifera.

It looks pretty much the same other than it's gotten a little fuller in the branch areas.

Beautiful! What a great progression. Thanks for sharing.

Mike

Is there a reason it slants a bit to the right?
