That Vitex has potential. I like the discordant flow of the jin and main branch. Makes a nice counter point.

thanks rob. enjoying your china trip posts.

thank you for the compliment, pavel. I appreciate your kind words. I am one of many IBC members who admires the material you collect and the skill with which you style them.

Very handsome trees.
Thanks for sharing them with us.
Jerry

nice bougi...Thanks for sharing!!

thanks jerry and gm. I appreciated your comments. I had the pink pixie on a turntable today, and decided maybe the back should be the front for a while. the bottom of the trunk is not as dramatic from this side, however, this front isn't bad. what do you think? I never realized until today, this tree had two fronts - I guess you could say I couldn't see the forest for the tree.




best wishes , sam

Thisfront looks much better to me...the thick trunk is very impressive....

Beautiful trees Sam
