Plant: Jade
Style: Informal Upright Grouping
Obtained: All found objects. Dug up from the shady baron area of the yard. Long single root going back many years. Had a hella-lot more leaves before Gordon styled it. I made the pot out of a broken old Redwood arbor thing for vines to climb on; the platic liner around which it's built doesn't really route the water right and it will all rot sooner or later.
Potted and Trained: 2011 Sep 6 at the SBBK Tues member's workshop
Update Feb 2012: Still going, still training.

Here's a weak winter bee checking things out (2012-FEB-04):
