tell me what u think guys any help on the maples ?

Don't have any suggestions for you, but I just wanted to say I think they all look good. I wish I had more specific feedback, but I'm just starting out myself and trying to develop an eye for these things.

Oh...and I can see why the pine is your favorite!

Both of your group plantings (larches and maples) look crowded to me. I would space them out in wider and shallower pots to better develop and display branch structure. Good potential though. The pine is very nice.

I don't know how the larches do with trimming, but if you were able to take a little bit off the tops I think it would balance the grouping with the pot size better.

You have a great collection all nice and healthy!!
Your pictures make me want to do more outdoor Bonsai

thanx guys love the pine too much
so yeah I tries cutting the top of the maples and there has been no new growth since that time it was when the leaves had fullly formed so I was a bit scared about cutting any further any idea why the maples have stopped removing new leaves I mean isnt spring meant be growing season ?
