Hi mate,

Tree is looking great...have you done a virt for what you see as the future shape of the tree to be? Amazing how much older the bark etc looks in only 3 years!

Hey Petra and Mark,

I havent made any virts. It basically styled itself with only my sticking some used wires to hang down the branches. I will take the wires off next year, they look ugly in a photo. Petra, the tree is probably around 50cm tall. I envisage or hoping to create an Aussie bush scene with some Aboriginal context and call it "the dreaming". I am starting to grow a few different tubestocks for the future, but this one is my focal tree in the composition. I hope you like it so far.

Cheers Edward
