wes,
Heres a fall shot from October of one of FOUR big, collected "Bloodgoods" I've been woorking on a couple years. A few more years to go. Size of boards behind tree are 8" across.
The other three are shorter, bigger trunks but not worked as low into pots yet. Sorry , no other pics.
BTW, as with all maples, large cuts heal great! and I treat cuts with putty-type sealer.
