Pot: Walsall Studiot
Another early attempt, originally planted in the root-over-rock
style. I was never happy with the the fundamental mistake I made of planting
the tree on the very top of a small rock - it was unnatural and began to
look silly. I air-layered all the roots while retaining the original nebari,
and finally dispensed with the rock. A great improvement! |
