Hi IBC,
another casuarina in the making..



my first encounter with this tree, it was positioned the wrong way, because in the initial planting the guy who planted it wanted to hide the big cut trunk away from the view. sacrificing the advantage of having good branches, and trunk position.

I opted to rework the tree and choose the side with huge cut as front,,,to deal with the cut much later on.

Outstanding Jun, i also like what you did by obscuring the large hollow with foliage, as its probably a little big to leave fully exposed, however i think it looks good in any case. really nice tree and very natural looking Wink
