Hi all :wave: ,
this will be my entry into the Native comp this year,,,
This Melaleuca was collected from the Gosnells area of Perth some 8 years ago and has been trained for the last 6 years.
I have personally owned this tree for 5mths and in that time have done considerable work to it, including repotting twice, wiring of branches, treating etc of deadwood.

This tree is now MY tree :yes:
First 2 pictures for reference, ***Final competition pics to come later***
