This setting was made on Saturday 3rd September 2011 and the tree used was purchased two weeks before hand in a small standard plastic garden pot from Boyds Bay Garden World. After the tree had recovered from the major tap root chop i started to scissor prune the foliage when it started to get to long and leggy, this is the second wiring done to it. The tray i have used is for a pot plant because i was unable to find the correct marble trays used for this style.

Photos: The first photo will be the photo and front i will use for the contest, the second photo is where i would like the future front to be in relation to the rocks.
