The tree has put out a lot of new growth and has begun to fill in its new shape. I will just let it grow out this year and regain its health. Next year it will be styled. This one won’t take long to finish. I think you can see the general shape at this point. It will be shorter and the left branch will need to put out more growth as well. Aug 2006

The tree has filled in very quickly and actually needed to be pruned back. However I believe I will wait for winter before doing anything major to this tree. Aug 2005

The leaves have come back very fast and the grafts are nearly complete. I took the time to trim this tree up a bit. However there still are things that I want to do. The second branch on the right needs to be bent down to mimic the branch below it. Also I need to complete the back branches once the graft has taken. Lastly, this tree will be repotted this winter in to a more shallow pot and this tree will be well on it’s way to being nearly “finished”. July 2004

Well it’s always nice to know that you didn’t kill a tree. With major pruning I’m sometimes a little nervous. However with all the new growth on this trident maple, I think I’m safe to assume it’s going to make it. April 2004
