Dear Olga, another beautiful variance combined with everything else in your garden. Bravo! Just when we think we've seen all you have you give us another educational surprise. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Weeping Larch are almost 100% grown by grafting. It is a single mutated tree that has been propagated through grafting. They can also be propagated by air layer and possibly by cuttings if the grower is skilled and patient. One option if you want a large tall tree like your which is a stunning example is to graft wheeling scion on an already established tree of what ever height you prefer. Once the wheeling branch/es has/have taken you gradually remove all the original larch foliage and you will eventually have a self supporting weeping larch. It’s a project. Thanks for sharing your spectacular tree
That is a beautiful tree! Very interesting! Does one prune out the dead under branches? If so, would it be good material to make wreaths or swags with them? I have never seen a weeping Larch before. It's gorgeous!
I love the idea of those branches being used for wreaths! I don't see people cutting those branches out, but why not to get several of them for decorations? Love it!
Hi Olga. I just follow your vlogs not too long ago. Your evergreen arborvitaes look so lush and green. I am in zone 4 and I am loosing the matured green arborvitaes. Watching your previous episodes on the topic. You said you put fertilizers on them. May I ask what natural fertilizer do you use? Can you put the caring of evergreen (your regime) in writing will be most helpful. I know you said you Tim them in spring, mid summer ? Thanks a bunch. Love your style.
Hi Chris, I should do a follow up video on arborvitaes, folks have plenty of questions about them. I use Espoma natural fertilizer and put it around them in spring. I also feed them with fish fertilizer in summer. I do pay special attention to them because they grow in somewhat shady conditions, which is a big no no for arborvitaes. I also planted them a bit close together, I know, impatient gardener and privacy hedges. So, I will create a separate video about my arborvitaes and will air it. By the way, right now they shed their inner layer of growth and some gardeners start panicking. No need, this is their natural growing cycle.
Think you Olga. Yes, I have lots of shady areas in my garden as well. However, the tornado in may chopped the top part of the Norwegian Maple down. So, I now have some sunshine but no more privacy. I really like your style. You are very creative. Thank you for doing a special vblogs on arborvitaes. Much appreciated.
Dear Olga, thank you for another wonderful video. I have a simple question: Is it safe to cut off the inner brown (dead) stems ? 😊 I am interested in planting an European wheeping larch in my front lawn, retainer wall. How do I prevent it from over growing? I don't want it to be more than 4 to 4half feet.
Weeping larch can be trimmed, although not necessary. You might consider another tree to fit the requirements of 4 feet tall. Weeping larch will grow and you will be fighting its spread.
Wow it’s beautiful! Does it still loose it’s needles in colder zones? Or is it because of your zone? I love weeping willows, so of course I find this wonderful! How does it smell? Idk if that’s a weird question. Lol
Weeping Larch is very unusual because it looses its needles for winter. And it grows well only to zone 8, so it loves cold areas down to zone 3. Because of your question about scent, I actually went outside and had to smell my tree. No, no beautiful pine scent, unfortunately. It smells like grass...
What a disappointment for me. I am in zone 7 and the most Southern location recommended is zone 6a. With our climate warming as it is, I would plant with caution even in zone 6a. I am besotted with trees and shrubs that have a weeping or contorted structure and look at every one that appears on my search path. For those interested in the tree, take the time to look it up as it also has a unique flower. I suggest that anyone do a complete research on any plant they find on YT as you may find that the plant you think you want may have characteristics that make that plant a wrong choice for you. Or you could find that the plant is everything you want and more. i.e. There is nothing more beautiful than a Weeping Willow. This tree will send out roots for a surprising long way in search of water. This means it will wreak total havoc with water and septic lines that could result in costing a home owner thousands of dollars. For anyone desiring a truly contorted tree/shrub, look up Harry Lauder's Walking Stick.
i live in northern wisconsin and our swamps light up in the fall with all the native larches. you are correct with how amazing they look in the fall!
Your weeping larch is stunning❤. I bought my second weeping larch this fall.

I love this tree. I wonder how it would withstand high wind. I live in the Columbia river gorge where wind gets pretty severe some parts of the year.
It has support in my garden, so I would be careful about strong winds…

@@OlgaCarmody haha thank you for doing that. And it makes my heart smile you knew kinda what I was asking and didn’t think it odd 💚🌿🌱☘️🌲🌳
