Progression thread : Allocasuarina torulosa 25
I purchased this fantastic material from Leong at Bonsai South on 1st November 2014
Cost $30
This is an attempt at growing another natural style of Casuarina.
This is probably the thickest based torulosa I own. It is about the thickness of my fist. It scared me for a while back, after I trunk chop it right before spring, and it took a good 3 or 4 weeks to shoot. I was really scared that it would die back to the base. I wont do that again! Only in late Spring / Summer will I do a major trunk chop again.
I am planning on having multiple trunks in a more natural growth style, but will have to wait and see.
