Hirotoshi Saitoh Workshops

Post by Gerard »

I booked my places yesterday for 3 workshops with Hiro in early July. Several sessions are completely full, even some days are completely filled and it looks like people may miss out!
I have 5 possible projects for my three workshops and would like to know what people think of them.

Perhaps needs more back budding before it is presented at a workshop (or is this as good as it gets?)

Hi Gerard, I reckon you should take the small and mdium JBPs and the Scots Pine.

Good luck and good learning

thanks, I bought the Scotts yesterday, I think the graft is quite good and will be easily disguised and I love the short compact needles, the juni is a possibility still but it is always good to have a back up tree when attending a workshop
