Like this tree it was in the ground for 3 years to thicken and encourage lateral roots.
Dug up 2011, chopped and planted in a tyre.

I wanted my trees to all look different, so had to make one into a real bosai shape. Chopped it three times.
The top section is a bit straight on the tight side.

@SeanS Surprised you havnt got your hands on some Celtis Africana, they obviously grow well in your climate. Frojo hasnt been on for a while but I always look back on his threads, he did well with these. Inspiring, not bad for growing on in a car tyre:D
