I intend to use the three smaller trees to make a group .I potted up last November .Reduced roots to get into pot ,unfortunately lost one tree and had none to replace it with so has been sitting neglected. Good opportunity to get motivated. John.

Will be good to see how this one develops. Have just got some of these come up from seed... Long way to go, but keen to try this species out after seeing some up in Noosa.

Hi Matlea Nice trees to work with . This variety is a minty green in colour and tends to be a bit course in the foliage. The variety with the blueish vegetation is a lot finer and much more compact. Good luck with the seedlings ,wire the trunks early. John.

This one has been a bit tricky. I have a rough sketch that I am working to. :fc: Will be glad to repot these ones to see if I am on the right track.
I have cut back pretty hard and wired what was left. Should be O.K. they are tough little trees.
Cheers John.

Finally got this one into a pot. My sketch went straight into the bin ,as the roots dictated final placement. Hopefully this one will power on :fc: , and will be able to adjust branches. John.

As you can see three has become two. Withdrawn from comp at least I have something to work with. Cheers John.
