What a difference some leaves make!
This is the small trident group recently posted in the TOD.
I think leaves really help define the shape of the crown, and yes two more trees will be in the group next spring. (there were not enough good branches on the smaller two trees to place them with these trees)
The legs on the pot are still there. For those interested on why I chose a pot with legs when I could have chosen a pot without them since they were available both ways? I chose the legs for horticulture reasons.
1. air circulation under the pot.
2. tying wire in is always a problem unless the potter puts wire grooves in
3. water will not leave the pot when watered on the bench due to adhesion
( I know, just place the tray on small stones or blocks of wood. Thats when the birds will knock it over, or just chalk it up to "I'm lazy")
