[ANBA] Melaleuca rhaphiophylla

Post by Pup »

Pup Western Australia

This tree was collected from a swamp in Denmark south west WA. In 2004 it was an upright tree but fell over when I was working with others. It has been trained as a semi cascade since.

It is 360mm high by 500mm wide. It is in a handmade Japanese pot with a piece of dead wood as an accent.
