Pinus caribaea - twin trunk windswept

[wattynine]

Early days for this one, comes from the same stock as the other previously posted trees of the same species (not a good ending)
This one I will not re-pot for a number of years now and let it settle.
It is growing well in only diatomite and scoria, we'll see.
progression shots up till weekend just past,

Just an update on this as I troll through all my plants.
I can imagine people wishing, a. I would run out of plants to post, and b. it would stop raining in NQ so I would have something else to do.
Sorry, it's still raining but yes I am running out of trees to update.
anyhooo.... to the trees,
