Re: Melaluca - Snow in Summer
Very imaginative, and well done. I suspect in a couple of years you might notice that the two main curves in the trunk are the same radius - like two opposing Cs - and youin
Great start.

Re: Melaluca - Snow in Summer
For whatever reason I really like this tree! I am at a loss to say exactly what the appealing feature is compared to so many others. It is just beautiful. Well done.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

Re: Melaluca - Snow in Summer
Half my last post disappeared, from"youin" (wherever that came from) - site gremlins.
I think I said you might want to tighten some of the curves so they don't look the same. To me, both of the lowest branches show very good shohin lines, and one or other may take your eye some day.
As I said, great start.
