It's a pretty good time of year down here to be working on quite a few of our native trees in Australia. I have been doing just that and thought I would post a few pictures here of some of them that I have been shaping over the last 5 years or so. Most (all I think) started out as tiny seedlings when I got them so you can see, depending on species obviously, they are capable of developing at a pretty quick pace.
Hope you enjoy looking at something maybe a little different!
First up ... Leptospermum Continentale (Prickly Tea Tree)
... and a trunk detail of above ...
Next is another Lepto, although the exact kind is up for debate ... maybe L. Lanigerum but not convinced.
... and a trunk detail of above tree. I got some bends in pretty early on this one when it was VERY thin ...
Here's a Black SheOak (Allocasuarina Littoralis) that is probably only 3.5 years or so from seed I think ...
I'm turning it into some kind of baby Bunjin/Literati/whatever ... I think the "aerial" shot below does a better job of showing the trunk contours ...
And lastly (for now) another Black SheOak which is a bit older and in need of a pot to elevate it up a few notches...
A foliage/jin detail shot of the tree above ...
