Hello, I live in Siberia
this is my first experience, tell me if I'm doing the right thing?

Not a bad start, though I'd recommend letting it grow more. The base is very thin, and the only way to thicken that up would be to let it grow in the ground for several years. It won't grow thicker in the pot. Make sure it stays outside. Wiring appears clean, though. Keep going

ie even in a relatively large pot will be poor growth ?

yamadori pine ( last photo ) is a good option for the job? what can we do with him?

here's another

Nice start, place it in a big bucket, that way you avoid future cutting of the roots in the ground. Make sure you drill 1-2 inch holes so water can run out freely.
in a 10-15 liter bucket drill 4 holes on the outside one in the middle. When the tree is in a bucket you are free to move it around and you can work on it when it is required. Best of luck.

These trees are fine for now. I'd let them grow in the pot as they are for the following year. Once they harden off, and your shape is relatively set, I'd remove wires & repot this spring. You can go for a larger pot, or in the ground. I'd go ground as it's the fastest.

There's another thread discussing letting a tree grow in the ground, making sacrificial trunks/branches, and how to keep live branches where you want your future tree to be. I may give you some more advice (& probably more questions).


Your yamadori may not be the best example to dig. you have a strong Y with both trunks having the same diameter. If you're dead set, cut one of them (leave a long stub to be pruned back later) & let it recover in the ground. You can always dig it up next year. I'd personally pass on it & search for different material. Good to keep your eyes out, though! never know what you'll find.

Also note that pines do not like wet feet. Planting a pine in a large container (actually, like most trees) will actually hamper development. At the moment the pot is large enough t get good development. Perhaps next year repot in a container a size or two larger. Pine do not require a lot of root space to develop well, as long as you have good substrate & fertilize.

Thanks , I'll look for a new yamadori

that cat though! looks just like my cat! :woohoo:
