[ANBITA] Babingtonia virgata ( baeckia virgata)

Post by Pup »

Mrs Pup
Western Australia

This tree is a multi trunk struck cutting, from Pups trees. It was put together as a Saikei by me in October 2011 at a workshop with Bill Valavanis.

It is in a free form Japanese tray with Western Australia iron stone. the accent is an Australian Homestead cottage.

It is 280mm high by 340mm wide. Mrs Pup

Nice setting Mrs Pup, the tree compliments the superb piece of Ironstone nicely :tu:
