Hey Guys.

This little native caught my eye at work the other day and thought it had great potential.
So here is a before and after of the tree. I will work on its shape more in the coming weeks.

Trim back the mass of foliage in a few weeks and it will be a nice shohin ;)
Nice trunk line, and the pot is too big for the tree mate.

Enjoy and best of luck with her :tu:

Cheers,

Han.

Hi Pat
Nice foliage :-)
The pot will work as a nice grow pot as it is much larger than it needs. When you are ready root prune to get into a smaller one

Be careful mate! These things can be EXTREMELY touchy even in the ground. After all, they are related to the Boronia! Good luck. Keep us posted!
