You can do just about anything to them and they keep coming back for more. __________________ "History will be kind to me for I intend to write it" -Winston Churchill

I like the character of your trees, but I don't like the spacing between the three trees and the heights of the outside too--too much symmetry makes it less interesting. Also, did you leaf prune the trees or is that just how you got them?

As far as the spacing goes the roots on those three are grown together tightly did not want to disterb them. Oh and by the way just my opinion your advitar is kind of disturbing. Is that suposed to be a cat being lifted by chopsticks? __________________ BigBriDD Kensington Ct. Zone 6A Last edited by BigBriDD : 25-Jan-2007 at 05:57 AM.
