| I just finished a trio of trees, two palms, one from the genus Salacca, the other a robellini palm, Phoenix reobellini (for some reason the species name and common name are spelled differently), and an oak sapling. Here are the Palms, they are on eBay as a set if anyone is interested, under DOLLHOUSE TREES The Salacca [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The robellini [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The pair together [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The sapling is modelled after a live tree that is stressed by drought, most of the outer leaves had died and fallen off but the inner foliage was full and healthy. This gives a good look at the tips of the branches, I do all of the trees the same, but in a "healthy" tree the twigs are hidden in the leaves. Here are a couple of photos, it is also on eBay along with a taller sapling. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| I would love to have your talent with trees, then a collection truly would be fun to look at. Great job! _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Thanks everyone, I'm glad you all like them! I've started a full sized robellini palm that will be done in a day or two, I'll post some photos as soon as I finish.
