Masterpiece
They're fun trees, easy to grow, style and wire - everyone should have one or two. The small ones were propagated from cuttings of the larger one. The larger one from an air layer of a ground grew tree I dug up - see the really lanky tree first pic is in it's second year - the moss round the base is to keep the roots moist while the layer's roots colonise the pot so please don't say 'weed it' - it's meant to be like that (there's even have a hawthorn seedling in there for the eagled eyed posters). The chunky base (for a coto) I've carved and ground layered for a sumo style tree - I'll show this one in the future when the pot is removed from around the trunk and the tree looks presentable. Several other cotos are also on a rock planting which is also looking half decent now. Cheers. These are destined as sundries trees btw so I am enjoying them while I can ;-)
