Re: Long awaited elm grove

As I started to place the trees in for design possibilities, it became apparent that I may not use all the trees. I had too many! how could this be. I wanted to have 11 trees, but some were quite large. I had to prune some down to be more in scale with the other trees.

I left the wire long that I pulled thru the holes. I do this because after I tie in a tree, I can use the ends to tie in other trees. I don't need as many wires that way. I still pulled 12 pairs. The hard part is coming up with a design that works with the trees you have. I am sure there could have been other combo's since I had 11 trees but I wanted certain trees in specific locations and this is what I came up with.
