SALE / TE KOOP: Japanese Larch + book + accent pot

DUTCH:

Japanse Larix (larix kaempferi). Dit is een kwalitatieve, vrij grote, en al wat rijpere bonsai boom. Is minstens een 25tal jaar oud (zelf gevormd en opgekweekt vanaf startplant, +/- 15jr geleden). De bloemknoppen zitten ook dit jaar alweer klaar (krijgt nadien kegeltjes). Doe ik van de hand, omdat ik enkel wil focussen op inheemse soorten, dus zelfs mijn mooiste uitheemse mag weg. Deze bonsai staat ook in het fotoboek van de tentoonstelling 30jr Vlaamse Bonsai Vereniging, afdeling De Leie, in 2016 (tentoonstelling in De Rekkeling te Deinze), kan u inkijken bij mij en kan u zien op één van de foto's. Reeds verpot een paar weken terug (moet om de +/- 2jr), met verankeringsdraad en in goed substraat. Is heel goed winterhard (kan de winter buiten blijven staan). Moet tijdens het seizoen bemest worden, tekst en uitleg krijgt u erbij. Toch al een hogere vraagprijs, maar ik ben ook benieuwd naar biedingen. Als er iemand uit de ruime omgeving koopt, ben ik nadien ook bereid voor vragen of hulp met de verzorging, deze boom is te mooi om niet goed te onderhouden nadien. Er is nog een kleine spandraad of bedrading te voorzien, dat kan ik ook nog voorzien.

+ Boek (Ken Norman, 256 blz)
+ Potje voor accentplant of mame bonsai (made by greg-ceramics)

650 EUR: vraagprijs is bij echte interesse en bezichtiging terplekke, nog iets bespreekbaar.

Afhaling te Oudenaarde, Oost-Vlaanderen, België

ENGLISH:

Japanese Larch (larix kaempferi). This is decent size and allready maturing tree with good quality. NO big wounds. Bark is coming on. At least 25 yo (started from younger nursery material and built myself at least 15 years ago). Flowerings buds are ready to burst within the next few weeks. I'm parting with this tree because I really only want to focus om native species, so even my finest exotic trees can leave. This tree is in the photobook '30years Flemish Bonsai Assocication, division 'De Leie' that was printed (limited edition) with the exhibition in 2016 in the city of Deinze. Has allready been repotted a few weeks ago. If anyone from in the (broad) neighbourhoud should buy this tree, I could offer help and guidance with maintenance, if necessary. This tree is too nice to neglect it with bad maintenance. Could need some minor wiring.

I include:
+ Book (Ken Norman, 256 blz)
+ Accent pot (greg-ceramics)

650 EUR: if seriously interested, and on visiting, price is a little negotiable.
Collect in city of Oudenaarde, belgium.

new pot for Birch

new pot for my Birch (Betula Pendula)

tree: made from scratch (seedling, 2008)
pot: made by my previous teacher ceramics

Bark is slowly beginning to whiten (it will take several more years), hence the lightcoloured glaze. It's slightly big and heavy, or so it seems due to the effect of the pot surface details. In the end, the tree will be slightly higher too, when the top matures further.
All in all, not bad as is.

Malus flowers

Will flower abundantly. I'm happy.

Redcurrant's 21st birthday

This tiny little Redcurrant (variety) or Ribes Rubrum var. celebrates its 21st birthday this year.
From a cutting in 1997. I'm happy I never threw it away back then.

SALE - pinus mugo Shohin

Selling, because I want to focus on primarely native broadleaved trees, and because I've got too many projects I am growing and preparing for future personal bonsai therapy :)

This is actually one of my very first bonsai plants, started from younger nursery material, must be back in late nineties ('97 of '98). Well then this means it is about 25years old. No fat trunk here because it was always kept in pot. Details of an attractive bark here and there. Nice structural build-up and allready some refining, with backbudding, lots of tiny buds, tiny candles etcetera.
All in all, this is not a warehouse-bonsai but it is decent quality and can be made ready for exhibition quite rapidly according to me.
Nice little pot, not standard so this means it was not cheap either.

Collect only, in Belgium, province of East-Flanders, city of Oudenaarde (B-9700).
310 EUR.

Last 2 pictures are from approx 5 years ago.

Privet - small group repotted

Privet (Ligustrum Ovalifolium).

Small group, tallest tree is about 25cm.
I separated two trees from the group and put the rest on top of a stone before placing the lot back into the pot. One of the two seperated trees needs to be cutback (lowered).
Offcourse, several years ahead building up, refining..
It was already flowering, but this is not the goal for the coming years.

I will eventually put it in another pot.

BEFORE:

Another little Rowan tree repotted

Another common (european) Rowan (Sorbus Aucuparia) repotted.
Also small size. Started in 2014 from raw material collected alongside the driveway of a private garden where everything gets mowed every 2 or 3 years.

Will be a lovely presentable little tree in a few years.
Moss, collected from the roof of our neighbour's backyard shed.
