Flow

Post by melbrackstone »

I'm trying to understand "Flow" of the tree, and I'm constantly confuzzled by trees I've seen.

This tree is placed on the left of the pot, and yet to me, the flow of the tree also goes left. Am I right in thinking the tree should be placed on the right side of the pot?

Yes you are right. Slightly to the right. But there may have been a root in the way.

Thanks Mike, and yes, I guess there are often problems like too thick roots etc.
