Gday Jezz!

The 3rd trunk was dead all the way down to the soil line, so I opted to remove it. As you can see in the 3rd photo, the 3 trunks were joined together in a 'raft' style, leading me to believe that this lot was collected as a bunch of suckers from a larger tree. When I removed the dead trunk, some apparently live roots came with it, so I popped it into some well drained soil mix on the off chance that there is still some life there.

Bula Mr Steven!

I'm sorry to say that this one has been transplanted into the big Bonsai pot in the sky... :oops: Perhaps it's about time I updated my numerous failed Bonsai experiments.

Vinaka!

Fly.
