cypress forest
A little over a year ago I started on a cypress forest. I posted pictures here and it wound up as a good long discussion on forest plantings. I found it quite interesting. Picked up a few pointers.
Just thought I would post a current picture of that forest. Maybe with a bit of a clean up and some wire it might just be something one day. We will see. I have been known to screw up and do things right. Not often but every now and again |

That looks quite nice, Ron. Thanks for posting.
It's interesting to note the trees in the background doing their best to imitate your planting. Please let us know how long the wiring takes ![]() pootsie |

My guess would be a full day of wiring. This will be the second time the forest was wired up so it won't take quite as long this time. |

The garden is coming along. Ground cover etc. has to grow a bit (a lot really) Might be able to post some pictures by the end of this growing season. Much too ugly to do so now |

Looking good! Maybe when you transplant you can leave room to drive that army tank of yours through the grove.

Hey Ron,
The forest is looking good. JMHO, but I would like to see more defined number one, two and, three trees. I would imagine that you could collect a couple that are a little larger in trunk diameter and add them too the group if the forest hasn't become rootbound yet.
