collected with Fiveoffive was present when collected a week or so ago .I think the young fella was surprised how quick i hit these with a pic and threw them into bags for the trip home . Not a bad effort from a bloke with 1 1/2 legs .

Hi Jow & FMB , not for sale until its 2 years in my care .Yamadori can drop dead in the first couple of years for no apparent reason , and i like this one so it will have the greatest of care , then i will consider its plight .

Cheers Alpine

Hi alpineart,

I like the radiata very much... For me, its first position (picture just above the green frog) is very appealing: it was being knocked down the cliff by the Winter snow, but Spring comes it bounces up for the Sun... And so nature continues...

Best regards.

Thanks Alpine :yes:
the second Semi cascade does it for me with the growing tips out and up ward.
I imagine knocked over and held down by snow in winter.

Hi Daiviet , mother nature does it better , that basically how it was collected give it another 15-20 degree's and it should be as per grown .

Hi kc , its the amazing the difference in how we see this pine . I think the first original pic is the one for me or the windswept . .

Cheers Guys
