These are a few Sycamore Maple forest / groups that are in there second year of training . They were collected seedlings in Winter  ’09   and planted into a polystyrene box . This winter i set them up in trays as forest starters , now its time for a defoliation  then back to the benches .Some of the trunks are quite unique and again i may re-design the trays as they progress into larger tree’s Cheers Alpineart
