    Kam ty na tie prunusky chodíš ? Ďalší pekný kúsok, akurátne veľký.

    Normálka: v lese:)))

    Co se mahalebek týče: objevil jsem svoji horu Myouji, kde tyhle stromky rostou/přežívají. Před cca 2 lety jsem se rozhodl, že tam ostatní ponechám. Vzhledem ke stále problematičtějším srážkám je ale otázka, jak dlouho tam tyhle stromky vydrží. Uvidím, třeba se tam někdy vrátím a pár kousků ještě přinesu...

    Dobrý stromček, nebari na jednotku. Popracujes na štruktúre koruny pár rokov a oválna koruna príde sama.

    Tak toto je nádherne prirodzene vyzerajúci strom, ako píše Maroš, koruna sa časom zaoblí a potom bude dokonalý :)

  Pears and cherries are trees of my childhood.    At my Grandparents there used to be an very old pear with small fruit.   Was it a P. pyraster?   Don't know.   I only remember the  starlings singing in the morning  somewhere inside the crown near their nesting box...     There are so many things we would like to know but the people who could help you with that left this side of river many years ago... A bit of the history of this tree: Air layered back in 2019 from a donor tree.   Spring 2025 Height: 20 cm Pot: Jakub Malcharek.       The colour of this growing pot reminds me the area where I search for my mahaleb or pears.   Dry slopes with scattered reddish rocks and tiny vegetation flowering in the spring.    As a display pot I will select probably slightly more masculine, smaller and darker pot.    One day perhaps

  Collected in 2004.    Current height  54 cm.  Pot: Yixing. The design of this tree really doesn't reflect the natural habitus of  Cornus in the area I live.    In its natural habitat in Central Bohemia ( limestone based dry slopes ) it grows like a shrub or a small multiple trunks tree up to 3-4 m.  Its native range is in Southern Europe from where it has been taken  by Celts to Central Bohemia I guess. Another location where it can be found  and it is quite abundant is in south Moravia.  Below you can see a typical habitus of Cornus . https://pladias.cz/taxon/pictures/Cornus%20mas#image4,  Aleš Moravec This is a typical location in Central Bohemia.

31.12.2003 Last day of 2003  and I am in a woodland looking for yamadori on a loamy slope of Central Bohemia.  Location facing south with scarce supply of water. Place where you can see dwarfed oaks, common junipers, and dogwoods.  I was searching through an undergrowth when I spotted a tree partially buried with fallen leaves and branchlets, but the visible part has some interesting deadwood. And if you are a yamadori hunter, you know what it means. The heartbeat rate goes up,  you go down on your knees, and your fingers start cleaning the area with eager expectation of what is under the cover.  Sometimes a disappointment or a hesitation and sometimes a sheer pleasure... 2015 2018 2025 Height 55 cm Pot: China
