This is what the tree looks like today. In a short period this tree has come a long way, but still a long way to go. In the Spring I will defoliate the tree, rewire, and maybe repot the tree. It is very healthy and doing very well. Jan 2008

After 7 months the canopy has begun to take shape. This of course is only the first styling, with more to come. I want to develop to top on the right side of the mound. If all goes well I expect to have this tree ready to submit to Epcot display in 2009.

Once I got in there to take a look I found that there was a lot to remove. This is a soft wood so I tried to be careful and not expose the bare wood as much as possible. However these cuts were big so I had little choice.

My first thought was, keep this tree alive. So I repotted it immediately into my favorite bonsai soil mix


So seriously, where do you start?
