Defoliated in July and rewired. I still need more branches to work with, but this tree is filling in well. July 2005

So you tell me, do you think the grafts were a success. They sure were. This tree flowered and has grown so much it amazes me. I holding off until this winter and maybe longer to let this tree really strengthen. In only a few short years this tree will be pretty impressive. July 2005

I finally shortened the long growing branches. They have thickened up pretty well. However I wanted to cut it back to help create new branches. I need to develop a top for this tree. As you may be able to see there are some new shoots emerging from the top even now. July 2005

Here’s the front. Coming along very nicely. I need to do some carving on the top right third of this tree. It is a little heavy up there and looks to thick. Hopefully sometime this year I’ll get the chance.
This tree was root pruned rather hard this spring, and never slowed down. The goal was to get the tree into a very shallow pot. The reasons for this are first to make the trunk look bigger, and secondly so that I could lift the thing. The tree was wired out, and is developing very well. This summer I plan to do some carving so that the top tapers more and blends better. The photo is of the back of the tree. July 2005
