Studio Stories – Black Pine…..preparing for styling.

Sometimes I work on nursery trees, sometimes I work on client’s trees……and sometimes if I’ve been a really good boy I get to work on my own trees. Hopefully these regular visits will give you an insight into what goes on behind closed doors……….

Studio Stories – Black Pine….preparing for styling.

This tree had been in our growing beds for a couple of seasons and was lifted/ potted last autumn.

It has grown well this year, is vigorous and a good colour. It was taken into the studio for seasonal pruning and some thinning out of needles to allow light and air to penetrate the canopy. Lots of new buds inside will now be encouraged to develop further.

Hopefully the tree will be ready for a wiring and styling during the coming winter months.
