Rudd’s Literati Acer Palmatum clump

[Ruddigger]

Trying to have some fun with cheap material. The two tall trees were leftover seedlings I bought from @JEads to use as root grafts. They’ve just been sitting there growing for the last year or two, so I decided to do some inline wiring on them and add some movement. I then reset the roots and mounted them to a board to get a penjing-ish literati clump out of it in the future. I also added a third little trunk which is a seedling from Matt Ouwinga. Repotted into a newly made cedar grow box

Here’s a picture with a lighter background. I realized it’s hard to see the trunks with the black tape on them and a dark background.

Those are going to be very, very nice.
