Senkaki Forest: April 2022 updates for Trio and Solo

These five became four, and are now Trio and Solo.

First, the trio:

Unrestrained growth from one branch, while the one in the back is stunted.

Cleaned up, added some sand for moss, and trimmed them all to a common size.

For some reason I didn’t trim the large leaves.

Now, the Solo:

This has really been growing strongly, which I always like to see.

It’s growing well enough that I missed the wire digging into the branch.

Fool, Fool, watch the wire is the rule.

Snip, snip.

By removing those long leaves, I ended up reducing the height by about half.

Lay out sand to attract the moss:

Does planting moss even make sense? Doesn’t moss just turn up?

And it’s done.

I don’t know about that left branch. It’s coming out below the ground in this pot. Maybe it’s a sacrifice branch if the tree gets lifted at the next repotting?
