My Trees

[Milly]

Small leafed Ficus Burtt Davyi over rock. Leafing out for spring. I love this stage before the foliage becomes too dense to see the branch structure.

Another one but this one a bit slower to leaf out.
Time to flatten that apex!

This was a truncheon cutting of a boughy, taken early spring 2019. Its about 30cm tall. Very excited for the future.
Video file too large. Sorry about the screen shots.

So nice to see spring growth just as those of us in the northern hemisphere are going into fall. Keep up the photos - it will help us get through the winter

Some of my olives next. Screenshots again.

This one has the loveliest natural deadwood. Not sure what could have caused it.

The two above were collected olives.
This little one was neglected nursery stock. Lucky me

 

[Milly]

Two pyracanthas. Probably both will get their pots next spring.

Another Olive I've started to work.
I'll have to let those branches run for at least two years to gain thickness relative to the trunk size.

Really nice material!

where does your olives come from? they look a lot different than the olives we get up here.
the wild olives up here have darker rougher bark and the leaves look different...if I did not know better I would say yours look way more like European wild olive hahaha

very interesting

best regards

A bit late replying...
Most of my olives are wild olives which a farmer allows us to dig at a farm in the Klipheuwel area.

Building up a head of steamSee post #30 on this thread.
This needs to run like crazy this year to fatten up those branches.

A crepe myrtle I've been playing with.

They're not very common here.
