Larix decidua Twin Group

June 1996

This twin group was assembled in spring '96 based (very loosely) on Dan Barton's famous twin larch group.
The trees were ordinary garden centre material.

January 1997

Very fast growing tree.
loads of secondary and tertiary branches have grown in 6 months.

June 1997

Going berserk!!

April 1999

Repotted into a proper bonsai pot in spring '99 (for training purposes only).
I will most likely put this group on a slab sometime in the future.

March 2000

Repotted onto a slate slab.
looks a lot better but years of work to go yet.

May 2000

The right-hand tree seems to be more vigorous this year, probably due to root pruning when they were put on the slab.
