    Wallace Cork Bark Elm

    Great work Rob and wonderful progression. It is good to see that a tree I started years ago is still alive and looking so beautiful in the hands of a true Artist.

    I cleaned up this Winged Elm yesterday getting it ready for repotting. I noticed that it had blooms. It is in a Michael Hagedorn pot.

I remove all of the leaves on my ficus in the summer this makes the bud back all over and produces more and smaller leaves. They can be leaf pruned up to 3 times in a year. if...
