The Greenman tree sculpture arrived as pictured except that it has a very dark, almost black tone which does not meld in with the scrub oak trees on my property. It would fit more on a pitch pine. I found this disappointing but I will keep it anyway. The resin material it is made from makes it somewhat flexible and thus somewhat conducive to conforming to the tree trunk. I'm hoping it will fade somewhat in the weather. Somewhat forboding but on the other hand, befitting a tree creature who would be protective of any lurking evil spirits!
