Ficus Obliqua

Post by AndrewM »

I have been working on this Queensland small leaf fig for a few years now but the photos I have don't go back to when i first brought the tree as a starter. It has been over potted to develop the roots and fatten the base.

Hi Andrew,
Doing a great job, I love the trunk line, and ramification of the branches is progressing very nicely. :tu:

Hi andrew :gday:
I really appreciate the chance to see the progression of this lovely little tree and has given me the motivation to take progression shots of my plants as I work over them.
Looking forward to seeing the future shots as well :tu2:

Thanks for the comments evryone :D
Stewart before I became a member here I never took photos of my trees :palm: I wish I had now looking back. I like to see the change that time and care makes to the trees as I know that alot of trees I have were starters at one point but without the pics I just can not remember what they where like. Now I can see the change. Also I find pictures give me a different prospective and I see the tree differently in 2 dimentions. I have made design changes to some trees for the better after looking at the picture.
