Really nice tree and pot Craig. Whats with the little notch at the base on the right hand side, did you do that for any particuler reason?

[Craig]

Thanks Guy's . This pot wasn't bought specifically for the tree but I decided to give it a go. This was my first pot from Bellota and I can say, It is of very high quality, Thanks again Paul The tree is now center of attention.

Jarrod, please take the time to read about the "notch", it's on page 1 or 2, cheers mate.


My recent thoughts are that the trees canopy/crown area could be slightly higher, I'll see what eventuates this spring

Hi Craig,
Love the pot and the tree,have been following the progression on this tree and absolutely love the result,I love the texture in the pot,it reminds me of some massive rocks I took a picture of on my recent stay in Halls Gap,any chance of putting the potters details up if possible.
Regards Marcela

It's always good to see this tree developing. Bringing the first? low left branch around a bit more to the front is good refinement, to me.

Also liked the hand - made the exact size of the tree clearer.

Thanks Gavin

My recent thoughts are that the trees canopy/crown area could be slightly higher, I'll see what eventuates this spring

It becomes clearer now with new foliage that I need to raise the crown slightly as previously mentioned.
