[SML] Tumbeweed

[Riter, Andrew]

May not be practical for you but:

I had some small flowering shrubs that didn’t survive winter.  Once the leaves fell off, and it dried out from being dead, it might have passed for a small tumbleweed.  (I’m from the west coast, and haven’t seen a tumble weed except for movies).

Some pruning would help (the base stalk to root ball, thin out the interior somewhat).

Go to a local nursery, find something the right size and shape, remove from soil, let it dry out for a week or three, and prune it.

Hello all,  I am currently working on the production of “Johnny Gitaure” (or how ever it is spelled).  The director want some tumble weeds at some point in the show.  Does anyone have an idea of how to build one?  Being in Iowa, a road trip to AZ is nice, but not in the budget.

Please & Thank you
