| What a difference a year makes, it's surprising how quickly things become established isn't it. I'm sure like the rest of us gardeners' you will get great satisfaction from your garden and bonsai, nice specimens too. Keep up the good work

I appreciate the labour that went into laying the stepping stones.
Nice layout with some interesting trees too. I'm concerned that the Larch looks precarious in that tiny pot but perhaps you have Literati designs on it.
Make sure that you keep turning the pots to even out new growth on the trees. Your design looks like an easy upkeep option, well done. =Don.

Pines are complex in their response to pruning and can even be quite negative at times. If you're still growing for more tree it's sometimes good to leave them to get on with it for a couple of years. Removing needles is restricted to old needles.Tip pruning is only in candle reduction most of the time.
