Just picked up a weeping ume after looking for one that didn't cost a bomb for about 12 months. I'll have a crack at cuttings and air layering this year and see what comes of it

Re: Post your winter flowers (2023)
The rocks at the base make a slender trunk much more interesting - well done! And the flowers always make me happy.

Re: Post your winter flowers (2023)
Thanks Gavin.
When I potted it up I saw the opportunity to do a little rocky scene and make it nicer while the trunk is still developing.
I’ll be letting it run to concentrate on thickening the trunk over the coming couple of growing seasons then I’ll air layer.
I just get sick of having everything in a black grow pot all the time.

All my pink unease are opening at the minute. My whites did way back at the start of winter. Must be some genetic trait.

Re: Post your winter flowers (2023)
still needs styling really but it is a fun challenge. It flowers well and carries fruit. I want to get more shape in the crown and maybe lower the trunk and widen/create nebari.
