CLOUD TREE - I styled this crepe myrtle 6 months ago and after 4 weeks of beautiful spring growth it’s starting to take shape. A cloud tree is a specific style of pruning & trimming to create an exaggerated form with foliage pads or pom-poms on the tips of each branch. Very useful to keep your feature tree contained & manageable in a small area or to add a dynamic talking point in your gardens. #andrewstark #andrewstarkgardens #andrewstarkgardendesign #gardendesign #gardendesignmelbourne #hedges
