Larch Bonsai Progression - 4 Years

I describe and show the progression of my dwarf larch (Larix laricina 'Blue Sparkler') bonsai over the last four years. I bought this tree as a garden center shrub in May 2020. After four years of pruning and wiring, it is beginning to look like a bonsai.

    Thank you! I'm flattered that my tree is an inspiration. I hadn't realized how much this tree had changed until I put this video together - it transformed slowly, but that makes it all the more gratifying. Good luck with your larch!

    Nice contrast between the succulents red, and the bright green needles. Resembles a solitary tree in a heather field. Very comon sight here in the Netherlands. Beautiful composition!

    Yeah that tree looks very nice indeed.. I think it would look good in a round pot

    Thank you! I agree, I think a pot with rounded corners would suit it best. I plan to put it in a nicer ceramic pot when I repot it in 2-3 years, likely oval, but I think rounded as you suggest would also work well.

    @@grahamharlow7471 Yeah, the more I consider it, the more I like the idea of a round/drum pot. Thank you for the suggestion; I don't know if I would have considered it otherwise.

    Try and shorten the top branches to increase the conical shape or allow the bottom branches to grow longer than the top of the tree will help to balance the tree at the moment the tree is top heavy, beautiful though keep it up
