where is the pic ?

More like mid October. My order is leaving Oregon end of this month-1st week

So I bought Silver Show....even though there doesn't appear to be much talk about this . I suppose it's also too slow growing, as the #6 was still a small tree. Must be a slow grower and as such, not much consumer interest it.

I would take exception to the above. Silver Show is a dwarf, growing less than 6 inches a year and should top out around 4-5 feet. (about the same as Horstmann's Silberlocke). Dwarf conifers are exremely popular with consumers, one of the reasons both Iseli and Stanley and Sons flood the marketplace with them. I fail to see the logic in purchasing one in a 6G size. Not only is that unnecessarily expensive, you lose the enjoyment of watching a small plant grow and develop over the years.

I consider a #15 a big plant.

Personally, given the small stature as is, at this point in my life, I would rather have the extra 2-3 years of growth on a #6 .

Kiddo's are not off to college but I do see a time where we may be moving elsewhere.

I'd rather have a fuller plant to enjoy while I can. As far as #6 on a silver show, while it's got a decent height and branching, it's not full by any mean.

I'm growing Fukai and Parvi .Ogdon acquired as a #3. I do enjoy candeling them shorter to make it more denser between each growing season. But they are soooooo slow. Am tempted to head to a nursery than does have these in B&B semi-specimen sizes **but** of the pics sent of said trees, it's been left to grown wild since day 1, so the spacing between branches is not as dense as I like on these cultivars.
