Please take note of the final update:
30 April 2022
Please include a clear photo of your tree with each update, preferably with a plain background or something that makes the tree identifiable, like a plain fence or wall.
Please include a description of what the experience has been for your attempt with natives.
Reminder: Its about what looks most Natural.
Also please note, I am only human. There may be some delay in getting all the pots posted out to people.
I do apologize, but I will endeavor to get them all shipped as soon as possible.
Browsing through the updated entries, there are some real beauties. I look forward to seeing the final submissions.
