Convenient Tiedowns

[ArtAtkinson]

Thought I'd share this idea. A convenient way of tying your branches when the pot offers no help.
This is a Barbados cherry.

A ficus citrifolia

Don't remember the name of this one but Budi or Robert will most probably know it.

Art,
A very,very good idea. Touche!
I presume the heavy grid is then secured to a board (or something) so that the plant may be moved from site to site (in and out of sunlight)? Or is the grid in itself unflexible?
Those trees of yours are "smashing" :0
New leader on the Barbados Cherry?

Marcus:
Thanks.
The grid is firm enough to support the tree when moving it. - I got the idea from a friend whose training benches are made with a grid top and she used the grid to tie down the trees, but then she could not move them.
'New Leader?' Yes, it was, but I've since removed it. I don't think I need it. The tree is tall enough already

I like the roots of this Ficus. Looks very natural.
