Not much growth due to the cold weather here in albury. 1st attempt at carving about a month ago trying to emulate a hollowed out tree.. probably needs a more when I first prune it.

Yet more carving/massacring.. felt that the trunk was far too straight and boring so decided to add a large split and see how it heals up.

It will be interesting to see how you go getting those riots into a shallow pot!
