Larch the fox cave

Hi folks, a few years ago these larch to make a great stir, because I have a fox skull buried under the larch. The name of the arrangement, the fox cave.

What a good tree I love Larch, and I have a Larch which was collected with a fox scull with it!!, strange

A very bad photo of the Larch with the scull

Regards Chris

what's a lovely composition...

Nick Lenz would be proud.

Hi Chris
Very interesing tree. This is L.Kampferi?

Karl and Chris,
both of these larches are exciting trees. The fox skull adds a wonderful element. I had a beaver skull residing on my benches ... until the rodents got into it and ate part of it.

Wish I could grow larches in St. Louis

Wow, I love everything about the Larch arrangement. What a great before and after.

They dont last here. They live for three seasons before dying. I think it gets to hot in the summer, but I am not exactly sure.

Hi Pavel
The Larch is the hybrid "Dunkeld", a cross between European and Japanese, this is the only species that I am aware that is planted these days.
Your wild stuff is a different animal having darker and better bark and it seems to ramify better than ours. There is always a down side and that is that it is much harder to bend with out it snapping. Our hybrid is very forgiving. But what a great species to work with it must be one of the best species, European or the Hybrid.

Regards Chris

you have perfect feeling for larix ....................... great job !

I showed this composition on exhibitions and had thrown hence discussions. Nick Lenz was compared with it already, but Nick had not made a so composition.
I have observed that by nature. I am happy if you like some.

Wouldn't it first need something like ceramic statues of a Priest and an alter boy displayed with it?.....

Beautiful trees and composition Karl!

HaHa. Good one Dale. And yes Karl I agree Beautiful trees.

i really like this, great movement in the branches, the smallest tree on the left looks like it's about to pounce on something. the fox skull only makes this better, it compliments the spooky feeling perfectly. or the trees compliment the skull, either way!
