Finally a decent picture of this tree. I have been trying for the longest time to get a branch to cover the scar on the upper top of the trunk. As you can see I pulled one from the top over to the left side and it hides it quite well. Sept. 2005

I am sad to report that this tree slowly died in July. I have noticed a lot in nature this year that a lot of bald cypresses were dying as well. Perhaps the hurricanes from the 2 previous years did some damage that the trees just could not recover from. However this was one of my favorites and I am very sad to lose it. July 2006

The tree has filled in very quickly and actually needed to be pruned back. However I believe I will wait for winter before doing anything major to this tree. Aug 2005

This tree has come a long way in a short time. In this picture this tree looks huge, however it is only 5 inches tall. It still needs a lot of development, but it has its overall shape and is looking very healthy. Aug. 2005

Here’s the same tree just a few weeks later with the new growth. As you can see the tree is beginning to take shape. It’s just a matter of filling in the branches and letting them thicken up now. July 2005
