Sauce,
I've struggled with this one
.At the moment the trunk on the left is thicker and in a more traditional position for an apex,but I have been working on the right hand trunk trying to thicken it up.Maybe I am going about it the long way and should have just used what was available but I wanted something a little different.
All of my trees tend to be works in progress and the designs tend to come to me slowly over the years as I see something from a different angle or as in this case...someone mentions what they see as a fault or maybe just a better way.I always appreciate new insights or views.
At the moment,there is a different front for this tree that I am tempted to use,but haven't decided yet.I still have a few months of repotting time with tropicals down here so it's not an urgent decision.I've already made the hard pruning to correct some of the major flaws I saw at the end of last season, and while I could do it once more this year,I will probably let it grow out until I have made the decision on how I want to present this tree.And then darnit,I might change my mind again next year
.
The fertiliser I use is osmocote(time released) and once a week or so,I will foliar feed with whatever I have on hand.Usually a Peter's product but sometimes fish emulsion.
Brian,
I would certainly enjoy such a discusion and be flattered that one of my trees could actually inspire a discussion of style and.............errr..........."art".
Thanks to everyone who has commented.
