Example on these 2 does the top crown count as inches or just straight trunk to tip long ways?Or does it just have to be shorter than 6 inches above the soil?

Sure use the fukien tea
Part two is to get it in the pot
It has to be in a Mame pot by 20-11-2018
It has to stay in there from that date cus keeping it alive is a challenge too
About the measurements
Id say like this dont know what others think about this?

So it can be 6 inches up and down from the soil? For a combined of 12"
Sounds bigger than mame
I will study my material and see if I think I can make it something
Thanks

I think my overall goal for this one is bigger than requirements. I will look for something else.

I'm thinking from top of apex to bottom of canopy if a cascade to total 6".

Yeah that makes good sense although is there a limit on how far from the trunk it can stretch?

I visualise a 6" square. That a cascade would fit. I'm not sure I'm right. But if max size is 6". It must be in all directions. No?

I was just thinking the same so if you go 2" above the pot you can go 4" down the pot making the total 6"

Well, at the end of the contest we will post some photos of the progression procedure, as per the terms at the entries' thread.
But I think it would be interesting if we posted here some photos in the meantime.
Or not?
I have made some work already.... It is very possible that it will prove to be a disaster (due to unfavourable timing) but I would like to show them.
What do you think of this?

For example, this is a Bougainvillea nana. Entry #1 for the contest
I have already worked with this little tree.
Upon loosening the soil I encountered a mess of fat, twisted roots and I had to almost use and repot the plant as a cutting (kind of)

I think maybe each of us just doing a thread to keep progress of our trees easier to keep track of. No? Than to sift through here. Though I see why one couldn't if the chose to add a photo here.
Myself...I am in the wall with the goji...depending on the roots if they can be exposed more if it will toss it into a Shohin classification. I'm not going to stress it. I will allow the material to dictate final size. I still have the itch Boston Ivy.

Thank you for posting your view, Darlene.
Yes, it would be better to start one's own "Mame Contest Progression Thread"
