Another nice one. Keep 'm coming!

(Why do I not have a larch like that yet??)

It Was a 70 € shohin starter from ginkgo bonsai center.. I'll post a picture of how it looked when i bought it 2 years ago..

Our club is going shopping, in march I think. The nursery we go to has lots of larches. I'll try and get one this time.
Price is about the same.

i can only advice it.. larch bonsai are very nice all seasons

Yup, nice littel Larch. But 70E for the starter... It looks like a 4-5 yr old ?

This one is'nt as good looking, but they ask the same:




On the other hand... I paid the same amount for my yamadori larch (when I wrote I don't have one, I meant one like Cronic has).

came out of a growing field after 7-8 years.. so this little tree is about 10 years old now..

in the field it was cut back drastically several times with shohin starter in mind..

i know Danny Use won't lie about that.. (but you never know..)

he showed me a larch shohin of 20 years old, even smaller.. but that was completely pot cultivated..

OK. Good to know.

After spending some 3 years working on bought seedlings, I got some seeds last winter. Now I have some 50 seedlings, 1 year old, in a growing bed. Guess I will have to pay a bit more attention to them then I have been, and get some financial influx in a few years. :woohoo:

Reminds me of someone who offered 350 of 'm, a few years old and some basic shaping, for E7,50 each. Still sorry I didn't go there to buy a couple.
