Hi James,

And I couldn't resist "virtualing" your tree. Such a nice fat trunk..... What kind of workshop are you going to do ??

regards, René

Sandi

That is a really cool tree. Love the trunk and it has some well place branches as well. For us dummies how much is 90quid in US dollars?

I like the virtual Rene, . I think the canopy will be a bit larger, as it grows out, but the shape is very good.

Since you mentioned it, they do look like Trident maple leaves don't they. It has a nice shape to it though.

I can see how the mistake was made though. The trunk looks like a trident trunk but the branches don't!

I once had a trident that had a trunk just like that. I'm sorry I sold it now. That was about 10 yrs ago and.......
well you know. I got a good price for it though! <8o)
