(some of) My Pines

Post by kez »

Hey folks,

Today I moved my bigger pines and some of my potted tree's out to the back deck as they were getting a little less sun than I would like where they were due to the position of the sun over winter. I am lucky that the deck is directly north facing and is covered with laser light so is pretty much a grow house and this will allow max sun over winter for these guys.

Anyway seeing as my bigger pines are all lined up I thought I'd take a pic

As I said in my last pine thread I need another pine like I need a hole in the head, but I really love them

Hope you all enjoy,

Kez

Looking good Kez!

I'm sure your looking forward to getting some of these into pots?
Do you consider any of them ready yet?

Fair few informal tree's - perhaps you could envisage some other styles for some?
Cascade / Semi Cascade?

As with earlier comment the backdrop looks a treat!
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Thanks folks,

Yes it is a great view, I don't get out there to enjoy it often enough!

I thought maybe you all might like a better look at it :)

This is looking out from the same direction the above photo was taken, you can see Mt Keira in the distance

And to the left further down the escarpment is Mt Kembla

And lastly another shot of the pines with Kembla in the background for a bit of perspective

Sorry, it's pretty bright out there at the moment, great for the trees, not so good for photo's

Cheers,

Kez
