hey gabbs :!:

nice sized trunk on this one, do you have any overall styling ideas yet :?:

i have had a few of these give up on me in the first couple of weeks, so if it's gonna die on you it'll tell you with losing that brilliant gloss and the leaves will curl a little... they don't come back from there :(

try to keep this one wet and warm.

good luck and kep us posted :!:

Nice caprosma they are really tough. I think you would have a hard time killing it. The leaf size comes down really well with defoliation. They are declared noxious in Vic.

Hi aaron sorry for the late answer.. i dont have an idea yet about the style i will wait this growing sesaon and im pretty sure is gonna be the tree telling me....
In some spot the tree was dead but still with the bark on it.....ive done sone cleaning this this morning and the interesting thing was that it was growing roots under the bark just where it was healing which make me think that those sort of trees are very easy to air layer.......

Yes they are. I have personally layered a tree 200mm WIDE and both are doing nicely.
