This is a highly interesting Pinus silvestris (Scotch pine) that was dough early in the spring of year 2000. The tree had two living branches and was almost totally buried in grass and peat. I only saved the branch that I felt was useful for the future design and planted the tree in a garden bed. The plant has responded very well and developed very healthy looking new needles of ordinary length, I judge this as very good new and I think the odds are good for this yamadori.

Probably the final design will be a dramatic half cascade with a dramatically twisted trunk with large sharis. The picture is not to good but it is possible to just about make out that the trunk continues with a couple of interesting turns after the support pole and ends with a thinner lonely branch. This branch is thin enough to be able to position the foliage close to the trunk. Today the total width is 80 cm.
