This is the latest edition to my collection .I purchased this potted plant "big bugger" from Jackie at Wangaratta .Talk about right place right time , this was a beauty and cheap . A multi trunk Varigated Privet in a 600mm plastic tub with a base of 120mm and close to 1metre high, just a little too heavy to lift so the trolley was used to move it to the garden beds where the root mass was attacked with a sabre saw and then trimmed by around 80% to fit into a 500mm x 50mm tray .I have actually used wire to hold this tree into the tray , way too big to stand on its own .

With the tree potted its into the trimming , 1/3 of the tree was tackled then the next 1/3 until it was finished . This is the front
