	Larch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Larches are conifers in the genus Larix, in the family Pinaceae.
		Larches are among the dominant plants in the immense boreal forests of Russia and Canada.
		Larch cones are erect, small, 1-9 cm long, green or purple, ripening brown 5-8 months after pollination; in about half the species the bract scales are long and visible, and in the others, short and hidden between the seed scales.

	Floridata: Larix kaempferi
		Japanese larch is a large, deciduous, needle bearing conifer with reddish exfoliating bark and horizontal spreading branches.
		The Japanese larch is a most handsome tree, tall and symmetrically cone shaped, with brilliant glowing yellow foliage in fall.
		The Japanese larch is considered the finest of all the larches in cultivation.

		The Japanese Larch has been extensively planted in forests whilst the European Larch is mainly to be seen in woodlands of perhaps over 60 years of age and in parks and gardens.
		Larch trees are particularly attractive producing a green flush of foliage in the Spring and assuming yellow, orange or light brown tones as the needles die at the onset of Winter.
		The hybrid larch is a cross between the Japanese and the European and first arose by chance when cross-pollination between female flowers of Japanese larch and males of the European one happened on the Estate of the Duke of Atholl at Dunkeld in Perthshire about 1900.

		larch, any tree of the genus Larix, conifers of the family Pinaceae (pine family), which are unusual in that they are not evergreen.
		Needles of the larches are mostly borne in characteristic radiating clusters.
		Larch is classified in the division Pinophyta, class Pinopsida, order Coniferales, family Pinaceae.

	Species:
		Larch (Larix spp.) wood is resistant to rot, and is therefore valuable for posts, poles, railroad ties, mine props, wharves, and pilings [3,17].
		European larch planted on slopes are susceptible to stem bending ("saber growth form") and breakage from snow [13].
		European larch is host to a number of insect species, none of which have been of economic importance [25].

	Eastern Larch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Eastern Larch, as a native tree of Ohio, is only found in its extreme northeastern and northwestern counties, but it is common in New England, the upper Midwest, and much of Canada.
		Japanese Larch (Larix kaempferi) and European Larch (Larix decidua) are better suited for moist to dry soils, and are noted for their outstanding yellow to yellow-orange fall color on large trees as well as weeping forms.
		The Larches are called deciduous conifers; that is, trees that bear cones as fruits, but drop their needle-like leaves in autumn.

	home I bonsai
		Japanese Larch is more delicate than its European sister and the bigger collected specimens tend to be European.
		Most nurseries have quality Japanese Larch grown for a number of years; however, Larch grows quite quickly and if you start with a decent size tree you can have a nice bonsai in under five years.
		One method I use is to reduce the outer 20% of soil around the perimeter of the pot and replace with either a mix of 50-50 akadama and peat or a 50-50 2mm grit and peat, leaving the original soil toward the middle of the tree to retain the mycelium fungus.

	LARCH
		Larch is one of the few conifers that loses its foliage each year.
		Larch is pyramidal when young, becoming more irregular and wider with age.
		Although the natural habitat for Larch is boggy sites, it performs well in upland sites in the landscape and is fairly tolerant of drought.

	Larch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		During the growth season, larch responds extremely well to wiring, and it is easy to position a branch exactly where it is wanted.
		Larches are often seen as formal and informal uprights, and in forest plantings, although they are suitable for all sizes and styles except broom.
		In northern areas of America and Canada, larch is often naturally stunted by its growing condidiots, and collecting larch for bonsai is quite popular.

		The European larch (Larix decidua) and the closely related Japanese larch (L kaempferi) are both tall trees that are pyramidal in shape.
		The young shoots are yellowish brown on the European larch and reddish brown on its Japanese cousin.
		The Japanese white pine is dependent on a fungus called micorrhiza, with which it forms a symbiotic (mutually beneficial) relationship.

	Species Guide Larix Larch Bonsai
		There are two species of Larix that are principally used for bonsai; Larix decidua/ European Larch and Larix kaempferi/ Japanese Larch though there are a large number of L.decidua x L.kaempferi hybrids that display characteristics of both species.
		WIRING Larches are best pruned in Spring when the leafbuds are ready to sprout and the bare branches can still be seen; care should be taken not to knock off new buds.
		Larch branches thicken rapidly and wire should inspected regularly to ensure it is not cutting in.

	Mycorrhizal Citations
		Ectomycorrhizal fungi (Paxillus involutus, Suillus grevillei and two unidentified basidiomycetes from excised Sitka spruce mycorrhizas) were isolated from stands of Sitka spruce either in monoculture or in a mixture with Japanese larch in an Irish conifer plantation.
		The growth of these fungi and their mycorrhizal formation in Sitka spruce and Japanese larch were examined after incubation in modified Melin-Norkrans medium containing either KH2PO4, Ca-3(PO4)(2) or Fe phytate as the phosphorus (P) source.
		The only differences when Sitka spruce seedlings were grown in either monoculture or in a mixture with Japanese larch mycorrhizal with S. grevillei were primary root length and number of short roots after growth on media containing Fe phytate.
