The shown tree below belongs to a friend: Marçal Lemos Pereira.
It was gotten by Yamadori and it has two years of work.

That is looking like a great tree, Luciano. Still needs a bit longer but wow what a start!

How does preservation of the shari go with your moist climate. I note a lot of moss on the trunk. Is the tree hardwood? Do you have a problem with deadwood rotting? Nice tree.

We do not have problems with the deadwood , we apply Lime Shulfur to each 2 months.
And the plant has a very dense wood.

wow, every two months seems a lot ?

i do know here in queensland where it is very humid deadwood gets a black mouldlike stain on it. but the lime sulpher lasts for a fair while.
