Sorry mate not as good as the other two that reverse taper is hideous. Needs to be grown out, so back in the ground or growing pot is my suggestion.

No prob Pup,the chop needs a little carve and it will be as good as gold! Thanks anyway for the input.

i need to get some of these mini's going, i got a sweet little stand for them but no tree to sit on it

i reckon with a little carve or a good grow out that reverse taper will be fixed.

i am interested in the trunk line being that the new abex loks like it comes from a branch instead of flowing as a trunk, i am not sure if i like it or not?

these minis must be a challenge though, i look forward to trying some

Yeah as pup said, not as good as the other 2. Just have to wait and see what time brings. $2 for a tube cant go wrong Jamie.

[Jamie]

true that ant, i didnt think that privet were allowed to be sold???

i would still be quite happy to buy one or two though

I would encourage people to collect rather than buy. You shouldn't have trouble finding them if there is water nearby. I bet theres more than 300 within 500 metres from my home.

Another nice progression series Ant,

I like seeing the development photos of the trees, it helps rookies like myself understand the bonsai process.

Thanks for sharing
