Here's a tree that might be called dynamic and multidirectional, and it hangs off a rock. Funky :lost:

Allocasuarina torulosa, near Spencer NSW on the Hawksbury R.

Hi everyone,
Just an update on the Casuarina. Finished most of the deadwood carving and preserving. I gave it a good spray with Earl's Wood Presever and it came up fantastic. The wood was very hard and not at all easy to remove in places. I seem to have ended up with the Mother and three daughters. The branches are still very green and it has started to shoot all over the place. Will post some more pics after it gets some branch growth.

Regards Panda
