Keep it up anyway, I like looking at your trees.

Old men cant... you know..., so they need to find something else to brag about

Pup I didn't think branches could go past parallel?

Any thing past the parallel in pot culture is a problem. Unless it grows that way and that, isthe problem it takes a while.

Would wiring your shape then using a weight, gradually bring the branch down?

As I said I have tried just about all of those tricks. Your!!! tree was a case in question. I know you have a picture of it.
If you look at the branch that is on the left, you will notice that it is not past the parallel. I had tried on about 6 occasions to ease it down. Each time there was loss of vigor. Also the slanting one in my dillema the branch on the left is being re grown after I tried to lower it. So as you can see it is not for want of trying. Pup and with this I have made my 300 post so I get another tool Mrs says thats good. Now come to bed. Pup

Ok, so its harder than thought. I'll have to repost my pre-sai i have that I was working on here at home. See what can be done with it.


Oh I dont have a picture of "my" tree, its on the dead computer.

Congratulations on your 300th post, but bear in mind, it's quality, not quantity, that really counts.
Penny.

Thanks Kindly Pup
I love the Bunjingi form. It can look so simple yet I am starting to learn how hard this form is to get right.
The natives branches not going past horizontal must make it even harder. I will go over some pics of Bunjingi and give this more thought.
I like the second thin one the best at the moment. The fragile strenght of Bunjingi is mesmerising
I wonder if the first one can have some removed to excentuate the downward branch?

G, day guys I have been answering on the down ward branch on species. Also the Paper barks that I have posted. DUH

These two tree's are Hybrids, they will except that down ward branch.
But be aware that it does weaken, so you will have to sacrifice, some aesthetics for a while then cut it back for display. Then let it have its head again. Mind you all trees should be let have there head a bit like a holiday as constant pinching and pruning put them under stress. So for one season give them a break
sorry for the confusion Asus and any body else that was a little perplexed at what I was saying on that downward branch. I will email you one little s#*t

Begone, spammer.
