[SOLD] Imported Chinese Fig.

Post by Jow »

Hi,

Listed for sale here is an Imported Chinese fig. I bought it as a project tree and have done a fair amount of work to it to get it to this stage. My vision for the tree is a semi cascade exposed root style and the basis of the structure is already there It just needs growing.

It does have a scar on the top of the tree which is mostly hidden from the front and back but could also become an attractive carved feature.

It has a very powerful trunk with attractive roots.

It is a great base to build a high quality tree out of.

You will be hard pushed to find imported material of this size for under $1000

My price: $500.

I would prefer to sell locally but if the buyer arranges shipping i am also happy to deliver to or arrange pick up for a local plant courier.


Pm me if interested.

Joe.

Hi Joe

Treat this aside as a bump for your mighty fig.

Was intrigued with your topless coke can - do you do this circumcision a lot ?

How do you make use of them ?

You have started my household off with this as a craze - my daughter has taken the first uncapped can (Coke Zero of course). She is filling it with $2 coins. She tells me that she has it on good authority that if you fill a can of coke with $2 coins to the brim you will have $600 exactly.

Any way hope you get some action for you tree - you never know someone out there may be filling up a can of Coke right now.

Cheers David

Hi David,

Thanks for the bump.

I am pretty sure my housemate is filling up the can with ciggarette butts, but yes, they do make handy containers.

This tree seems even better value when you think that the price is less than a coke can of coins! :D
