>Al, how do you keep that tree alive in the Fresno heat in this shallow container?! Fantastic!
Now, I think I might have commented on this in a prior posting, but you have the red flowering plant in the foreground - it's redundant to include it in the scroll, too. The proportions are very good though.

<This shohin grouping looks too cluttered to me. I think that unit on the right actually makes an excellent display on its own. I think you should let it breathe more like This display from Taikanten 2000

>Is this a Pyracantha? I think it would look great if its pot were glazed exactly like that of your accent planting. That off white would be fantastic with this tree. The brown is, well, boring.

<I think I remember a post you did on collecting materials for a marble tray planting. I think the display is fine. The larger group in the back could probably benefit from some ramification - it's a little confusing that the slightly smaller group on the right is the more developed part, but time will improve things.

Thanks for posting these displays!

Regards,

Matt
