Not much. Just two trees.

I purchased another turnip pine to play with...

And then what else? A new Trident to play with. After recent threads about tridents I'm not so sure I bought much to play with. This may be a problem.

Prepared it for Winter. Cleaned up old chops and sealed everything for healing.

This could be called starting over with bare trunk.

Maybe lean it more to the left for a slanting style. All the good stuff is still buried. Will expose that in Spring. Tree is 13 inches tall right now with a 3 inch trunk. My best guess after feeling around is that the nebari spread is about 7 inches across. It is currently in a cut down 10 gallon nursery can.

$150.00

Dude, you don't play! :D Looking forward to some early summer updates.

Never heard of a turnip pine.

Maybe sugar beet would be better. Just looks like some root vegetable I pulled up.

I think you have a trident problem. We could all get together and stage an intervention....

Nice pick though.

That looks like a lot of tree for $150! Great pick up!

You have to admire that. A man with a plan. Al always has a plan.
The trident has a really elegant line. Very sensual curve to her.
I'm anxious to see you develop the litter treasure too.

Keep doing what you do.

I think I need to make friends, or at least business partners, in California if you're paying $150 for material like that trident.
