Post Erio compressum thinning, I removed 15 plants actually.

Blood vomits have done well and are pretty easy actually.

If I had not seen your post to AGA Facebook page I would still be thinking that E Compressum is a small plant... Its hard to get a sense of scale sometimes :)

Well, I have not trimmed the other side much lately, so it's a bit over grown, whereas I had just mowed the left.
There's 3-4 plant groups that need to fill in again somewhat.
But in a couple of months, it should be primed.

I have a new idea and direction for the next incarnation.
 
Needed some time to read from start to end.love what your doing. nothing to do with Dutch but that's for purists. Love the quality and health of your plants well done
 
Some influences are from Dutch, some personal and some Nature. Developing one's own style is as good as copying the best styles. Both skills are needed to learn and keep the different ideas going in the hobby.
 
I love the joyful mix of influences. I think the aquascaping part of our hobby is pretty much dominated by the asian aesthetic ideals - so refreshing to see a more western idea of gardening being mixed in so skilfully. Nothing more lovely than a summer garden with deep beds of structured planting.
 
It's been one heck of a journey...maybe it's time to do a 'From this to this'...although there have been a fair few transitions in between so maybe it wouldn't quite do it justice...
