Prunus mahaleb 'Hail'

Since all trees grow a bit faster this year becauseof the high temperatures, it was already the perfect time to defoliate a few Prunus mahaleb. The first two are mine, the third one is from my friend Jože.


This one is in very early development so the crown is still very small/narrow.


This one has a much better remification, but the material is therefore much more shitty :)

I wish this one was mine too...

And in the evening we had quite a bad weather. Strong winds, lots of rain and some hail. Luckily the hail was small.

The pine

Here is a better photo of tne pine I worked on at the last workshop with Hans, as I promised. The basic structure is set. Now I have to wait a little for it to grow denser and then we come to the detailed styling.


Here is a photo of the pine from 2011.
