New Zealand Christmas bush
Posted: July 27th, 2009, 4:32 pm
I just finished repotting my NZ Christmas bush. I am pleased with the lower trunk. I started to work on the top a couple of years ago to produce some taper - still needs to thicken up hence the 'bush' up there but it is getting there. I just started on the second branch and if the upper trunk thickens up enough this season I will begin work on the top. Hope you like 
I love these trees
They have beatiful bark, especially when my sons footy doesn't remove it 
they grow quickly, handle 40C without a dropped leaf 
Oh yeh, did I mention the bark

I was wondering if I would be able to do something like this with some old nursery stock. I guess there is no excuse not to try.
