My 3rd and final entry.
Will get photos up tomorrow.
Purchased from Bunnings as tube stock.
Sorry for late post, let me know if it doesn’t make the cut.

yeah its fine mate. I'll give a few days leeway for others to post late entries too.

Its more about having fun over the next 3 years. Its like my son says, he knows he's not going to win in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd place sports events, but as long as I'm there to enjoy it with him then hes happy as.

Some damaged branches from the hail and falling off the bench due to a few strong windy days.
Tree 1
Cut back for taper and movement
Tree 2
Tree is branching out to one side which I’ll probably use on one of the sides of my group planting
Tree 3
Love the movement in this one, I haven’t cut back the main trunk too far back to avoid die back
Tree 4
Potentially another side tree
Tree 5
There is this crazy right angle or even acute angle halfway up this tree, will see if I can incorporate this into my design

They still sit in tray of water with regular monthly fertiliser application

Considering wiring a few of the leaders moving into winter
