Update


Haven’t done a great deal to this tree yet just cut a few tips here and there
Quite vigorous
Have noticed a few roots out of the drainage holes
The leaves were chewed to bits during January February moved it to a different spot in the garden gave it a water tray and it returned to good health

Baldtwitlion,
Good strong growth in reasonably short amount of time - it wants to be BIG!

still haven't touched the roots
essentially let it grow cut some off and repeat in an attempt to gain a nice trunk line
and constant pinching the new growth

The April update
I haven’t been at the roots yet but i do think it is in need of some attention
Again i have only been growing and pinching which seems to work well
They do love to grow




January






Im still not sure about a viewing front just yet
Its all been fun so far

Looking good! Thickening up nicely.

[Rory]

Mate, that is looking fantastic

I can’t wait to see this progress, even after the comp.

[Watto]

Wow, that is some tree-mendous growth, congrats.

[RogerW]

Are the leaves opposite or alternate?

[baldtwitlion]

Alternate

October 20 update
I had to get this out of the pot and check the roots it had been in the pot since the comp started and i was having issues with the water not penetrating tried aerating but could barely get the chopstick inserted



Early October

I scraped away most of the top layer of soil I haven’t cut any of the roots just a little separating and potted into a slightly bigger container
I will wait for another month or two before i work on the roots and hopefully pot it into a final container for the rest of the comp

Looking great, very natural style. And starting to bark up nicely too.
