I decided to hack this back into a smaller tree
SANY0211.JPG
. This was collected from the garden last year during some reno's .
SANY0212.JPG
I liked the trunk and base , hence the only reason i kept it
SANY0214.JPG
The base measures 120mm at ground level
SANY0215.JPG
The current height is 300mm
SANY0216.JPG
I plan to reduce it to around the 220mm-240mm mark

The pot is 180mm x 150mm x 80mm .

Cheers Alpineart

Hi VS , Mate they seem to be very slow at healing in a pot . My plan is to drill out the trunk and hollow the center , just to be a little different .
