Water Gum – 2019 Training

I found this in January 2019 at Avalon Nursery in their give-away section. So I got a five foot tree for free. Yay!

Touch and go with this one.
An uncared plant with the docs left alone long enough to be sun bleached.

It was really struggling, so I cleaned out the roots (finding a bunch of slugs in there in the process), and put it into a larger pot.

Two months later (March 2019), there’s some new growth forming:

New leaves

By May 2019, I’ve really come to like this tree. It’s quite colourful… white bark on the trunk, red bark on the braches, leaves ranging from green to red.

Now for some training.
