Progression of a Streblus Asper or Kalios

Bought the material from a local hunter in our province (Tanay, Rizal, Philippines). My first material since i started again with this hobby.

C and C are welcome. Thanks for viewing.

Hi D. (what is D for?)

I like the kalyos in the 6th picture, it is going to be a nice raft. just grow more trunk if possible.

As for the other trees, If you won't mind my suggestion. try to avoid the same canopy shape. Kalyos are good for distant looking tree. specially with this kind of straight trunks.

Nice material. I'm not familiar with the species but I would suggest letting the last one grow out and regain vigor and then making another chop closer to the main trunk. Also possibly removing one or more of those trunk.

Thanks a lot for the replies.


@ jun: Thank you for the input..i will take that suggestion. D. is for Darwin. I pm'ed you before. Hope i can have a visit to your place in QC.

@ Joe Hatfield: I agree with you...the last tree will be grown to its optimum then the two trunks on the side will be removed. Thanks.
