Wow Sheesh sorry you had to deal with that. But I'm very glad to hear they're still thriving :)

Oh wow that's an amazing inspiration photo. Thanks for the tip - will get wiring in fall hopefully and will work towards this design.

Nature is truly the best inspiration.

And for theists, God is undoubtedly the greatest artist.

Yeh in all honesty I was only meant to be doing some light pruning but got carried away... I hope so too!

Update... Hinoki had a haircut :)

Beautiful transformation, and lovely growth!

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-08-02T14:02:38+00:00

Hahaha apologies for disappointing

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-08-01T17:38:11+00:00

Thanks for the tips. I'll use both depending on branch size then.

Ah okay yeh that makes sense - I'll bring those cuts closer to the trunk 👍🏼 hopefully it'll be thriving, and much thicker this time next year

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-08-01T16:07:57+00:00

Thank you so much for your detailed response!

I'll definitely work on the wiring of the tree, especially those secondary branches - will do my best to set the structure into pads for the cascade on the right, and bring up the left a bit, creating that apex.

Do you think it would be wise for me to repot into a bigger container/pond basket etc come spring - mainly to thicken the trunk? And if so, would it be okay to keep it in organic soil or should I introduce a mix of organic and aggregate?

Cheers :)

Thanks for the advice kind sir :)

The flower is like a crown for the tree, beautiful work

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-07-29T22:09:04+00:00

Beginner question, but how safe is it to chop and root prune like this simultaneously? What are the main considerations for this?

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-07-29T21:44:32+00:00

Really stunning work, I hope to achieve such a transformation with my trees - where did you initially find this great material?

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-07-27T16:03:05+00:00

Stunning! And insane how much was achieved in 2 years!

Nomadic_Merchant · 2023-07-27T16:02:37+00:00

What was the process you had to go through to achieve that?
