Hi all ,I recently posted a post about a Kunzia I collected.

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=17902

I have finally finished wiring and cleaning it up. One small colony of ants and plenty of deadwood latter. I was originally going to use the first photo as the front, but was unable to bring the branches and the majority of growth forward enough . The back looks much better in regards to branch structure and overall appearance. However I miss the 'Curly ' shari and the exposed Layer. It is only early days ,as usual any thoughts both positive or negative are welcome. Please ignore the rough wiring Thanks John.

Hi John.

It's come a long way and IMO you have done a great job on the styling.
From what you started with I believe you have executed a great vision for this tree - well done.

The deadwood has come up an absolute treat and I have to keep reminding myself this is not a Juniper but an Aussie native!

I'm sure it will be controversial but the break and gap in the deadwood I feel is a real shame.
It detracts from the strength of the tree at a critical location.
It is what it is though and I'm just voicing my 2c.

Nevertheless I love this tree and believe Ken's vision for a slab or rustic base is the way forward.
I don't think it will suit too many pots.

Keep us posted!
