Those are nice pieces of art, its really a wow , your really great Bro, for representing in malaysia, we're very proud of you try to get one for our "pasalubong"

Take care and enjoy..

Thank you Ferdie.

BUT!! I did not "officially" represent the Philippines in Malaysia. It will raise lot of eyebrows here if I do that. hehehe! I work alone, but with the help of our "UN" friends here, from the Indonesian and Malaysian envoys. and I thank them very much.. Next time you guys come with me, BCI will be doing something good for us...If it works out well I'll let you know.

Thank you people for appreciating the thread. and you are welcome...and let us thank our Malaysian brothers for sharing the very fine works on trees and for the good exhibition.

common guys, select a couple of trees just for fun. The trees are categorized as Big, Medium, and Small Wrigthia. Brekea/becea big and small, and the assorted species.

Here are the two Beckea I brough home safely and wel-potted. The sizes are quite big, 1 meter in height. Just need some refinement especially on the small trees. I deadly love this species.... Dance

You have strong reasons to deadly love these trees!
Would it be too much if I asked for a close-up of the folliage pads, dear Robert?
Looking at the first photo and then at the second, I am wondering and I would like to look at distinct leaves.
Thank you very much!

Robert Steven Tue Jun 05, 2012 11:28 am

Hi Robert & Alexandra,
I think I fall in love with this sp as you do Sad

Someone give me a cutting or seed, please ....!!! Sad

(Or should I take a ticket to Malaysia?) LOL

Robert Steven Tue Jun 05, 2012 1:56 pm

Unfortunately, seed and cutting do not work for this species. It's more sensitive then Pemphis and Casuarina, so I hope mine will survive; if so, I will certainly fly back to Malaysia for it...

Robert,

This is VERY interesting material! I hope yours do well for you, they are certainly in capable hands.

I really like the weeping form. Are some trees naturally this way? The vast majority look like very manicured junipers, I assume this is the result of lots and lots of pruning. Any pictures of this tree in its natural state?
