I'll take some more pics when I get home. I prefer to keep it the around the same thickness, but I'm open to any suggestions. This tree doesn't have much taper as Judy had pointed out. I did not chop, this is exactly how I purchased the tree. I was goining to repot this spring as it seems...

Wow! Your work with bougainvilleas is so inspiring. I have one of your pics as my wallpaper.

I really would like to have it with roughly the same trunk thickness.

I bought this maple about a month ago. And have been staring at it for a month. Trying to figure out exactly where to go with this. The first pic is where I think the front would be. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey Si, thanks for the advice. Happy that you responded, since your down the street from me you know exactly what is going on in this area. I cant even tell if my plants are growing, dormant or dying with the weather we've been having. Not knowingly, I bought it half dead. So the cause is...

Thanks for the replies. Gives me some hope. Mach5s is beautiful. Its tough for me to visualize my tree looking anything. Yeah, I'm pretty sure its half is dead. Bad thing is I bought it this way. Noob move again. Thanks for the inspiration.

Picked up this crab apple stump. I have seen Si's crab apple in the archives and seems to be the same veriety.plan was to let it grow this season in this pot. Please give me some direction on what to do with my stump. Thanks

Seems like it works the way Darlene showd me. But sometimes it doesn't. It also works sometimes if I click on the little picture frame.

No exactly. I think I need to play with it some more

It worked. I don't think the way I did it is the right way. But it worked. Thanks for the help
