Re: Gum Yamadori
Yeah, old tree, it must have fallen during the recent rains/winds. It was very dry & sandy around the root base. I might actually head back tomorrow & cut off a few branches - anyone had success sanding them up & coating them in varnish? - they have nice bark these trees.kcpoole wrote:Sand under it looks a little dry to me and the vertical roots look deadFrankeldein wrote:Dry!!???kcpoole wrote:I little bit dried out I think but nice nebari

Hello Kane,
I'd be looking for ripe seed pods as it is a nice coloured trunk.

Re: Gum Yamadori
If you have a chain saw you should be able to cut yourself some timber slabs for exhibiting your trees on.

That was the plan, but...... no chainsaw. I wonder if I can call the council & meet a crew there?KIRKY wrote:If you have a chain saw you should be able to cut yourself some timber slabs for exhibiting your trees on.

Re: Gum Yamadori
In periods of extensive rain fallen eucalypts have the potential to re-establish a root hold & form new shoots along the now horizontal trunk to become a natural raft style

Hi Ken, do you know the old saying "never assume, it makes an ....", I try to live by it as there is always more to know that presented in any given situation.kcpoole wrote:Sand under it looks a little dry to me and the vertical roots look deadFrankeldein wrote:Dry!!???kcpoole wrote:I little bit dried out I think but nice nebari

Would love to see pics of your local sumo style Euc, it is a topic regularly discussed between a group of us with most putting forward the assertion that it is the only bonsai style not seen naturally in Eucs, I differ with my friends so it would be great to show them
