This is the “after” picture that shows the carving done to give the trunk a much smoother look. A grinding tool with a chainsaw type blade was used to do the carving.


After the carving the tree was root pruned and placed into a training pot. This pot gets used so often, and I think It only cost $2. The tree now has great taper and the start of a first branch. Feb 2004.

Finally the tree has gone dormant (with a little help).


As you see in the pictures to the left there was some bad scarring, and cuts that needed to be smoothed out.

I just purchased this tree from Tom Brantley in Ocala. It’s huge. The tree is about 34 years old (one of the ORIGINAL Too Littles)and the truck at the soil line is 12 inches. This one is a monster and I can’t wait to get started on it. February 2004

Note from the original owner:

Great Tree Tom Brantly purchased that tree from our Nursery It was an old stock plant that we used for cutting when we first got a patent on the TooLittle. We now grow them from tissue culture. Your TooLittle is very nice Thanks Connie Atchison
