Picturesque Pix

Post by Thuja »

I was browsing the Bambooweb gallery and found this gem from BooKing...
<img src="http://www.bambooweb.info/images/bamboo ... ustom).jpg" alt="PHYLLOSTACHYS vivax 'Aureocaulis' by Big Bad BooKing">
vivax aureocaulis in the background behind his many conifers.

Thought it might cool to post other amazing photos here as we find them...

I have friends that have over 1000 conifers,beeches,maples on 1/2 an acre or less and they have been growing them upwards over 40yrs in the same location. Lots of pruning, and like Roy said- "What me ,worry" 8)
