Hey Craig,

Tell the tree to hurry up & recover so you can style it.. Rafts are one of my favorites..

You think :?: I think this is the biggest understatement ever, I have a few in planning, looked at some stock today :tu2:

I am looking forward to seeing how much is left when you finally attack them.

Looking good :lol: :lol: :lol:

I love how a tree can look even more disheveled after initial wiring.... once you spend another day wiring & placing all that fine growth it will be great... bit more growing first ;)
