Definately worth bending the branches when young by the looks of yours!
Hi all,
During Peter Adams recent visit he related a story from many years ago when he was first in Australia.
He got sick and spent a few days in bed with a Callitris just outside the window and he has liked them ever since.
When he was in Canberra he asked me to bring my Callitris to the club and so I thought I better get back onto it and get it back in show condition.
I jinned the lowest branch and did a few other tweaks as well.
The apex needs some more work and the whole tree needs a new smaller pot.
Lots to go but as it is growing quite well at the moment there may be changes over the next few months.
Anyhow picture as of today.
