Seargents Juniper - Nat

Post by kcpoole »

Every time I tak Natalie to Rays, she keeps asking for a starter tree
I am happy to oblige, but last time I decided to up the ante a litte and get something more substantial theat she can work on and style in a nice pot

i found a nice Juni for $25 and a Penny ( Mudlark Pottery) pot

We finally got around to putting it together today as I am on Holidays :-)

she created a couple of Jin from the branches cut off, which we will carve in a few weeks when they dry out, and she will now learn how to keep the foliagin check to create back budding and build a small apex.

Yeah showed her where the line of the tree was, and helped her cut when her small hands could not hold the cutters and Scissors properly but that was about it.
