(#3) Small 名媛直播; a Shohin tree by Morten Albek
A gorgeous Rockspray Cotoneaster (Cotoneaster horisontalis). This is a picture taken in spring; the tree flowers in summer and has small red berries in wintertime.

The tree is about 20 years old on the picture and has been in training for about a decade.
(#4) Pinus Silvestris, by Stefano Frisoni

This wonderful Chinese landscape belongs to the Man Lung collection in Hong Kong. The trees are Chinese Bird Plums (Sageretia Theezans) and together make up a very realistic scenery.
