Upright or cascade?

name's Miles actually... Slim Genre (which has been my nickname for a while thanks to a bored and clever accountant at my firm) was an anagram of my real name... actually Slime would be better, but I decided to drop the extra "e" Everyone at work has been calling me Slim for about 7 years now.

lol


Ahh Miles, I should've known. Wonder where I got Glen from.....:confused::confused:
 
I like this view a lot:

P.S. Slim (or should I say Glen?) I agree with you about MS Pain ;)

I would put a tree in the little "channel" in the right upper area. and since schefflera were mentioned awhile earlier, I bought at home depot a 2 gallon pot of scheff trunks, al with tons of aerial roots. I repotted them and the best two are now in training. I exposed half the roots and majorly cut back one, and there is new growth already. But I think that ficus would be your best bet as schefs can be a little TOO vigorous and outgrow the rock rather quickly. and the leaves don't reduce as easily as ficus. but it's up to you

Thanks Danny. That's the same place I was thinking. Right now I'm debating how many trees I want on top. I was thinking a clump, but I am also thinking a single tree. It is a fairly large rock, it has quite a bit of length to it.
 
then maybe your main tree in there, and a second, smaller one lower on the left twoards the rear, if that were the front? also, some aerial roots infront of the "cave" would look really nice. It reminds me of a picture a friend showed me of her trip to Thailand, there was a similar cave/tree combo.
