Wild Current
36t x32d x23w
17lbs

Sold
Clump-style current. It’s a vigorous grower, it blooms white flowers and shows red berries nicely.
This tree has not been touched, thinned, or manicured in any way. I have worked with these trees and they reduce nicely with predictable growth habits.

Fir “Literati”
24t x 16d x16w
21lbs

Sold
This Fir was collected along a high mountain lake next to a huge grouping of berries. Due to its proximity to the berries, a few came home with the tree. They make the composition in the Anderson flat come together. Simple Elegant and Fun.
Initial styling done winter 2023

Fir
40t x29d x22w
34lbs

$SOLD
Strong twin trunk needing some wiring and refinement. The initial design was placed and wire removed in the fall of 2022. This tree pushed and is strong.
Styling thoughts: shortening of long branched, branch and bud selection will move this tree near or across the finish line. The pot is filled with roots and needs to go to a new home!

SOLD
Another clump/multi-trunk tree. This s another one I took a few years to find the line and get this tree into its initial styling.
Styling thoughts: Continual branch and bud selection along with shortening of appropriate branches will set this tree up to really shine in the next year or two.

Hawthorn
26x30x30
20lbs

SOLD - This tree is well established with a split trunk and bark forming on the lower portion of the tree. The leaning base lends itself to a deciduous literati form.
Styling thoughts:
I would reference Ryan Neal’s (Bonsai Mirai) reference to designing a deciduous literati tree.

Please keep in mind the scale of this tree is far smaller than the referenced image in the video. However, principals and design decisions can be leveraged. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn
36x24x16
17lbs

SOLD- This tree is established in a small container already making the transition much easier to a ceramic vessel.
Design thoughts: I would look at developing this tree into a true twin-trunk display. Proper pruning, fert, and angle choices will get this tree across the finish line. Most of these trees bloom, & all show amazing fall colors. Cold-hardy and has predictable growth. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn
32x20x12
34lbs

SOLD - This grouping can be refined into a small clumping of trees with proper pruning and foliage management this can develop nicely. Most of these trees bloom, & all show amazing fall colors. Cold-hardy and has predictable growth. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn
22x20x30
30lbs

SOLD - This tree has been worked on over the past few seasons. The focus has been on foliar density and ramification. Every hawthorn tree posted has responded well to the pruning and fertilizer treatments. Most of these trees bloom, & all show amazing fall colors. Cold-hardy and has predictable growth. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn “split trunk”
36x24x20
24lbs

SOLD - This is a solid tree to build out. A nice broom style. The primary framework is established and some of the secondary is present as well. This tree can be ceramic-ready and ramified in 3 years. Most of these trees bloom, & all show amazing fall colors. Cold-hardy and has predictable growth. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn “twin trunk”
32x24x24
25lbs

SOLD - This tree is a true twin trunk piece. The centermost vertical trunk is dead but left for design considerations by the new owner.
Design thoughts: I would look to push this tree forward developing the ramification and showcasing the twin trunk design to its fullest. I would reduce the center dead section and potentially carve it to enhance the age. There is bark forming and the rightmost trunk has solid ramification already starting. The leftmost branch could be shortened and compressed to round out the display. Most of these trees bloom, & all show amazing fall colors. Cold-hardy and has predictable growth. Crataegus douglasii.

Hawthorn “Clump”
36x24x24
38lbs

SOLD - What a nice clump of hawthorns. The image is compressed and beginning to ramify well.
Design thoughts: I would look to create some separation on many of the trunks by simply inserting appropriately sized sections of straight copper wire to push the trunks apart. This will open the image and allow the viewer an easier time to see the composition. The tree should be fully ramified and ready for its ceramic container within (approx. 2-3 years).
Crataegus douglasii.

Larch
36t x16d x16w
24lbs

SOLD
This tall healthy tree is ready to have its initial design placed.
Styling thoughts: My initial attraction to this tree is the diameter of the trunk. I would lower the tree via cutback and a new apex at the second set of branches. I would carve the top after the removal is done. Another thought would be to air-layer the top 2/3rds of the tree and then perform the work I stated above.

SOLD - Stout tree with nice curves and appealing foliage placement. Coming right off the mountain with foliage in the right spot is a tough one to come by, but this tree has it all… Deadwood, curves and twists, compact design that just needs a bit of refinement.
Recently slip potted into a new grow box. This tree’s roots are robust and dense. The tree was repositioned more vertically to showcase the branching and movement. This is also how I see the tree placed in a ceramic container.

Sierra Juniper - HDB0676 ———SOLD———

Sierra Juniper - HDB0677 ———SOLD——— This tree is huge. It has a massive powerful ribbon of deadwood with live veins on both sides. The foliage is reaching out and is dense. The twist and turns in this tree make it a true statement piece.

Sierra Juniper - HDB0678 ———SOLD——— As the picture shows, this tree was nestled in a deep crack. The trunk was heavily exposed but because the moisture was high in the soil the foliage is dense and very compact. The foliage is so compact it resembles Shimpaku Juniper. The grow box is deep but it will be repotted in the spring and I am confident the box is now full of fine roots.
