Oh my, thanks for posting this. So many favorites - the drops shots for sure. Blue Mammoth (?) with red Japanese maple. Shot pointing skyward through 2 evergreens. Is that Nelly Moser? But my favorite shot was of the spindly seedling tree with no leaves yet. THAT'S the kind of picture that a gardener likes. Because for sure what you were seeing when you took the picture is what you hope it will be someday. Christine

Want to make a comment here about an extra feature of the hosta slide show. If you've heard the wire wastebaskets from Dollar Tree mentioned as a barrier against voles, then take a look at pictures 30 -34 to see how to do it. They do not cut out the bottoms, but crimp it to a lesser depth. I think I'd wear some gloves while doing the job though.

It's very easy to do stuff like this on a Mac. If you can't find easy instructions by doing searches or referring to a User Guide, I recommend you enlist the help of younger members of your family or neighborhood kids.

Unfortunately there are more spelling mistakes than slides in this show :(

E.g. Abies Pinsapo Horstman ==> Abies pinsapo Horstmann ...

Really admire your Sciadopitys verticillata 'Perlenglanz'.
I have a small one too -- nice to see a picture of what I can look forward to.....
Also hoping to get a Pinus parviflora 'Goldilocks' -- you've got a fairly large specimen there too.
I think its most picturesque in spring however, when those bright yellow buds come out....

Nice pictures Joe,

But you have to change the Pinus uncinata 'Pixie' into Pinus sylvestris 'Pixie'

Great looking collection Joe. We have both similar plants and similar 'ages' of plants, it appears we're starting our collections at nearly the same time. I'm pretty sure I see some Coenosium Gardens stock in there as well.

Thanks for sharing!

It's definitely Pinus sylvestris Joe. Here's a photo from Bickelhaupt Arboretum and I know of no other cultivar named 'Pixie' except 'Pixie Dust' Picea. Very nice selection of conifers, for sure.

This is how bad/sad things happen when a nursery start to name a conifer in the wrong way.
I think Larry has enough knowledge what the differences are between a Pinus uncinata and a Pinus sylvestris.
Joe bought it as a Pinus uncinata and maybe in the future he give's away some scionswood under this wrong name and so on and on.
Joe, I hope that you will change this tag very quick so this problem is solved!

The Pinus sylvestris 'Pixie' in my collection.
