Juniperus Sabina- In Some Way Bizarre






A sabina juniper collected in 2005 ...


I consider its age round about 100 years!

Old Ficus retusa


I had the possibility to buy this fantastic tree three years ago.
It was in a horrible condition and now i am working on its reconstruction.
A tree with a long and exciting story that will be told soon,too.

Out of the Bavarian Oak Woods



This old barky oak tree found its way to my garden in october 2006.


I consider its age round about 60 years and i was very lucky to have had so many hungry helpers the last 60 years.


Ihis implicates that the direction of its styling is already laid and i will now focus on the details.
