12 Jul, 2012

12 Jul, 2012

12 Jul, 2012

13 Jul, 2012
Could look quite good painted black?
13 Jul, 2012
could look authentic ~ thats the word i needed ???

Really a very nice lad! I am surprised, as the pot looks quite small. Or is it just illusion of the photo?
May I ask which side of the house is this?
17 Jul, 2012
Its a bit set on wide angle Kata, but the pot is actually very big, I'll put a pic on or do a blog soon so you can see.
The door is my front door and the wall to the right is my neighbour
17 Jul, 2012
I meant on what world side is it oriented - north, east?
18 Jul, 2012
The door wall and front faces S/SW Kata so plenty of light and a bit of shelter too : )
18 Jul, 2012
Hm. Strange. As Acers usually do not like this side. It is too hot and too sunny.
18 Jul, 2012
Its in a shady spot in the morning and only gets the sun when it has moved around in the afternoon so when the sun is up and then getting softer as the afternoon goes on.
So not too hot.
18 Jul, 2012
I cant imagine it looking any better or happier than this so it must like it there!
18 Jul, 2012
Now that's what I call stunning!! i have a Sangokaku (Sensaki) at the front of my house, just like you. It's probably half the size. I've now got something to aim for!!
