    Dax, is the Pinus mugo 'Moppet' a witches'broom from 'Mops'?

    Pinus sylvestris 'Aurea Nisbet' was the original name given to this plant.
    Because this variety is found after 1959 it's changed later on in 'Nisbet's Gold'.

    The Pseudotsuga menziesii 'Fastigiata' is a blue coloured variety, the 'glauca' part must not be involved.

    The picea 'Gnom' is a cross between Picea mariana and Picea omorika which made it a Picea x mariorika.

    Normaly seen the Taxus baccata 'Standishii' is fastigiate form.
    The one at your photo is more a dwarf globose, did something happend to it's leader?

    The Picea jezoensis 'Nana Kalous' is in my opinion not the right one because I never saw it with a leader and such a large growing rate.
    I think it's a Picea glehnii 'Yosawa'

    Is the Ginkgo biloba 'Christina' is witches'broom?

    Edwin,

    I don't know the origin of Moppet. Kristina ginkgo is a WB. Stephen spells it like I wrote it and that's the spelling I've always written it as.

    Both Standishii's I encountered were not growing as narrow as they should. I knew this question would come up. It may be that the one that did have a leader got eaten by animals. The other one I believe was just pruned to stay small because the garden is so compact.

    Thanks for the other information, I appreciate it!

    According to Edwin, Picea jesoensis "Nana Kalous " are very doubtfull, however it's well a Picea jesoensis.

    Wonderful, it's exactly why I posted the shoots, hoping it wouldn't be glenhii or something else...

    Thanks for the i.d.
