I love the flat, wide, twisting trunk of this one Hugh. Look forward to seeing the update in another 12 months once it fills out a bit more.
Cheers,
Pearcy.

Great vision in the branch placement, Hugh. A survivor. Cheers John.

I dig this one Hugh.
I wonder if you'll get flowers?
I manage to consistently get flowers on my Baekea and they are beautiful little things!

Hugh, that trunk line is magnificent. Lovely foliage too.
Someone gifted this to you?
Nice gift!

yeah it flowered for me last season. they flower September through feb with the main show November/December. I won't be surprised if it dosnt this year but who knows!
This guy should fill out rather quickly, the foliage is course but they ramify closely so should come good density soon with some new growth.

gaining density quickly. Made a few small adjustments a few weeks ago and pruned also.
