Miss Piggie Trident

[leatherback]

I see green pigs flying back and forth, and thought I would share my suckling trident. Got it last year as one of a batch of new Japan import trunks with typical big cuts and work to be done. Nothing like the famous piglet, but still big enough to dent a toe when kicked.

As I picked it up from the importer:


Selected it based on some sketches I did on one of the pictures. Forgot to safe the original picture ..

I left it for 2020 to do its thing, mostly. Gave it a bit more substrate to grow more nebari



In winter I trimmed, wired:
