Created a DEEP forest w Ficus cuttings

Post by Per PF »

I haven't seen one of these before but I'm guessing it must have been done at some point somewhere?
Last year I tried creating a forest that you look at from the shorter end; bigger trees and substrate in the foreground and a little hut at the far end. Unfortunately parts of it died during a two week Covid-spell with no watering but I decided to built it back up with new cutting. I have not styled this yet - but I think you get the idea. The down side is that it's difficult to display/photgraph - more of a come-and-look-at-this-feature.
