Hey folks,

Yesterday I was lucky enough to pick up a beautiful old mume, I believe it was planted around 1990.

It had a fair bit of dead and rotted wood on the trunk so I got out the dremel and got to work, I plan on mixing in some ash with the lime sulphur to darken it up and make it look more suitable. And the view of the trunk from the intended front And the whole tree For now I intend to pot the tree up and just enjoy the flowers from the huge number of buds, and then after flowering I will make my choices re. branches and start to build the structure

Cheers,

Kerrin

Love it, beautiful find, that's for sure!

Personally I'm not 100% convinced on the potting angle but the flowering display and character on this one is awesome!
Keep us posted on this magnificent old tree.

Looking great. Nice carving

Love to see yours when it does kirky! I must confess I am also looking forward to after it finishes so I can style it, win win I recon

Hello Kez,

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
Looking forward to viewing the tree pruned up too.
So small for the age too.

Thanks for sharing,

Hi Boics,
I like the way it is potted up. But I would love to know what other angle you would pot it. Please share your thoughts.

Kez, sorry I can't down load pics. Don't have the tech.

WOW! I love it. Not just the flowers, the curves are quite nice too.
