Breaking a honeysuckle in two # 2

My son is checking the result of my work




Here the new trees are potted up. Insted of one big clumpsy trunk, I now have two (still kind of big) but much more elegant trunks. Both are about 80 cm tall and has a trunk diameter at the base of about 23 cm.
I had done some carving work last autumn, but now I need to go over them again, especially the one at the bottom to make the top section lighter.
The dark sections at the bottom of the trunks where they were joined together have bark and they will get a lighter colour like the rest of the bark when they dry up.
