Gday all. This is a pic of Brian's second tree posted. He had given me some photos to do some virts for him. The tree had a fantastic taper. This is a photo of it during styling. Sorry don't have any more other the virts I did. Cheers Rod

I think I have some of those virts. Should I reveal the tragedy?

When we moved from Bundy to Bris the removalists packed all my trees into open topped boxes. Some weeks after we moved I suddenly realized that this tree was missing. Later I opened a SEALED box only to find my pride and joy in the box - dead

that is very sad to hear brian, i was be furious about that, but what could be done? it is such a shame a quality tree had that happen, at least you still have the memories, unfortunatly the last memorny of it is a bad one.

Hey Brian,
Thanks for sharing your work with this tree it certainly gives me ideas for some of the troublesome plants i have around my yard waiting to become something more bonsai ish.
Would love to see some updated pics of this one now.
