MACESEN

Story of this Larix is very special; in short: Tina bought this little tree from Aleš seven years ago at Flora fair. She did take great care of it all this time and Larix gain his quality. It survived cold winters, hot summers, even bet that it is dead and that it will not grow in the spring, Tina watered it, fed it, even cut it, but the tree lost its shape during all this years. This spring Tina brought it to Flora again, Modri re-potted it, the pot is not good but this will be another story,  and we agreed for autumn shaping. And this is where I came in. Wiring was preatty tricky (wasn't it Matej?) because needles are still on the tree. We take care of new buds, the needles have already done their job for this season. Ramification is great - all because of Tina's great care. It take two days, because we did not have enough time (well, was me ...) but in the end Larix is in full glory again. We have nice bonsai, happy owner and great story goes on!   

Zgodba o tem macesnu je zelo zanimiva; če jo skrajšam: Tina je macesenček kupila od Aleša pred sedmimi leti na Flori. Ves ta čas je zanj skrbela z veliko ljubeznijo in macesen je samo pridobival na kvaliteti. Preživel je mrzle zime, vroča poletja, tudi stavo, da je mrtev in, da spomladi ne bo ozelenel je preživel, Tina ga je zalivala, gnojila, tudi obrezovala, a z leti je drevo izgubljalo obliko. Letos spomladi se je Tina z njim spet oglasila na Flori, Modri ga je presadil, sicer nazaj v glazirano in neprimerno posodo, a to še pride, dogovorili pa smo se tudi za jesensko oblikovanje. In tu pridem na vrsto jaz. Žičenje je bilo zahtevno (a ne Matej), ker so na drevesu še iglice, toda paziti je bilo treba le na nove brste, saj so iglici že opravile svoje delo. Razvejanost je zavidjiva - vse posledica Tinine dobre oskrbe. Trajalo je sicer dva dni, ker sva bila oba v stiski s časom (no bolj jaz) a na koncu je macesen spet zablestel v vsej svoji lepoti. Dobili smo lep bonsaj, srečno lastnico in lepa zgodba se lahko nadaljuje!
