It is looking good mate, do you think shimpaku's would do the same?

Might need to do some more cuttings

regards jamie :D
it was elias you were discussing it with, he gave me a hand binding it up and bending. na nothing to show you yet. its about to get slip potted up to the next size and just left to grow, grow grow. 5 to 10 years to go, then we can start styling. :D sorry to dissapoint but as soon as anything worth showing happens i will. :D
this who it was mate! sorry elias, short term memory sometimes lol.

all good mate, was just curious bout it thats all, this could be done on a smaller scale of time rather than waiting 5-10 years if i wanted to go with something similar but smaller in size, like mini? was it said that it will take about 3 years for these to fuse? obviously its a long term project for what you want as you stated it was going to be a lot taller, therefore the time span is for a thicker trunk, yes?

sorry for picking your brain about this, i just find this technique very interesting :D
