Rusty larch_Larix decidua
I have this larch in my collection from 2013 I guess. We had met few years before the collection in fact neverthless I was more focused on the deciduous trees at that time for one and I did not like the strange looking elbow like branch near the top of the tree. Luckily that did not prevent me to visit this tree any time I was in the area. Still it has taken me few years to realise that the elbow like branch is something special. Something similar to what makes monumental larches in Switzerland so special. Collected: Central Bohemia 2013 Height: 43 cm Pot: Tokoname Getting there. Need some more styling and time to improve... Elbow like branch_situated on the back of the tree Elbow like branch Flower buds ready for next spring The only cone left after the removal of blossoms in the spring Improving surface roots I have added the moss on the surface only this spring with the hope to get some new roots to improve the heavily one sided nebari a bit. Very happy indeed fo
