This tree had three branches broken off it in an accident two years ago,so it had to be redesigned and this is where it is at now any comments

Excellent idea. Now I know what to do with mine Wisteria.

Looking good, Bill. But what's with that 'unnatural' looking deadwood?

Bill G Sat Jan 24, 2009 9:17 am

Hi Reiner,regarding the deadwood the trunk is completely hollow,I think I may have used too much lime sulphur on it so I am going to let it dirty up a bit, thanks for your comments.

Hi, Bill:

Was the trunk hollow to start with?

For The Hobbit fans, this tree is appropriately sinister. Where's Tom Bombadill when you need him?

I like it, but I would try to tone down the lime sulfur whiteness a bit. A gray is more appropriate for an old willow.

How large is it?

Hi Reiner in answer to your question I hollowed out the trunk several years ago

Bill G Sun Jan 25, 2009 5:26 pm

Hi Jim thanks for your comments the tree is 9 inches high from the pot
regards Bill
