I see that, Sarah. I first thought of someone being strangled.

either way, a happy picture ... :-/

It's an interesting reaction (and I see Bob has had a similar one). The grips are actually being helpful. Thanks to them the sapling will grow up straight and strong.

This will probably be in a burlap bag this winter. I wonder if they'll keep the supports. I hope I can remember to check.

tight nice shot

Thanks, Clyde.

And I immediately though of a boa constrictor!

As I was saying to Sarah, this type of reaction is interesting, since the grips are actually helping the sapling to grow straight and strong.

Terrific perspective!
