Restyle Mugo Pine

Today i carried out a restyle on my Mugo Pine.
This one was discussed earlier, and the I.B.C. views were to make the tree more compact.
I am happy with the results but i think the tree will need a new pot.
Have you any ideas ?.

Nice job Peter.
Does the branch go below the pot?

Regards Chis

Chris, the branch dips below the rim of the pot.
Do you have any suggestions for a pot ?.

Hi Peter,

I think it might look good on a slab type pot, if you bring it to the Exmouth show we could have a better look

Regards Chris

I'm up to the big smoke that week end for my son's wedding.
Are you going to Swindon. I may be able to come up for the show.

Yes Peter I am at the Swindon show, hope you can make it. Its a great day.

Regards Chris

A slab type pot would look nice. So would an incense burner type of pot (Chinese). I could also see this tree planted in a rock which has a very obvious cave (for the dragon?). This tree also reminds me of smoke (incense) floating around in a very soft breeze. The trunk also looks like calligraphy. Simply beautiful!
Best, Todd

That was the last posting of this tree.
The original gave a totally different opinion.

Hi Peter

Nice Pine and very good development.


When I worked I might in this direction. Maybe?

Wow Pavel,
Lovely virtual, thank's.
That will take some bending but possible with time.
What about the pot ?.

I am trying the tree in this Gordon Duffet pot.
