What leads people to count is not a matter of even or odd. For some it is a compulsion. They have been told it must be odd so they must count to see if it is.
What I am saying is use the number of trees that look good in your pot. As you are putting them in stop when it looks good. If that number is even and it looks good then why add one more to make a odd number of trees, but an ugly forest.
I will admit that most of the time the number of trees will be an odd number. It is usually easier to compose odd numbers into a forest with no straight lines.
But the, as Captain Kirk would say, beauty is the prime directive. Numbers are things for accountants. |
