Some Garden Variety Chiropractic Services Rendered

One of several souvenirs of Irma's hurricane strength winds
left two of my Italian Cypress's with a noticeable bend, not
becoming of this classic specimen. I even as much gave this
shot a Tuscan glow to emphasize how much a curved specimen
may look in need of straightening.











Knowing that the windward side of the plant's tissue got stressed
from some perhaps in excess of ninety mile winds. I applied enough
stress to the opposite side of the plant to break up the tissue and
bring these two specimens back to balance. Naturally, being careful
to not snap the plant in two.

A slight over correction, perhaps. Practice, practice, practice.
