Another Nana future fatboy

[Beanwagon]

I got bored and decided to hack at this one abit.

No planning went into my new design. It looks better in real life.

I Haven't done any root work on root work on this one yet.

 

[Beanwagon]

Biggest change i made was to jin the bottom right branch and focus the growth to the lest hand side.

 

[Beanwagon]

So it will end up something like this, 3 pads on the left and a smaller pad on the right to balance it out.

Another posibility would be to dramatically change the planting angle and turn this into a cascade.

 

[Beanwagon]

Maybe something like this.

Decided to repot this today.

Makes me think of horses rearing up at each other. Cool.

Haha they do actually now that you say that!

Fingers crossed they survive the repot.

You're absolutely right - I can't unsee it now!

I didn't get before photo's but I gave this a trim today, wired and slightly changed my design. I brought everything closer to the trunk whilst making it more of a focal point.

Yes I use zip ties. They are quick, easy and effective.

Another update, little bit of a clean up.

Looks much better in real life. Still some work to do in the pads. I'm still learning. I'm happy with how it's progressing though.

I see you had to upgrade your aircon from Samsung to Mitsubishi as well
(At least that's my guess, our units look a bit different)
Great Junipers

Update?

 

[Joe Dupre']

Is there a procumbens variety that is NOT dwarf? If not, what is the closest variety that grows to a much bigger size?

I have some procumbens that are not "nana" (they were sold as "nana"). They grow upright instead of trying to crawl. I think they are growing a little bigger and faster than "nana". I have no idea where one might get some if that's what he wanted.

@Joe Dupre' google search only pulls up a few cultivars that all sound extremely similar minus one variegated one.
