been some time since i been on here or posted some updates. tree has come a very long way in the 4yrs ive owned it. still working at fine ramification and on the lower left branch but slowly coming together. also a little disappointed at the wire biting i got on the back branch as i did neglect the trees some as we had our first child last fall but back at it. here is the tree in its winter form (photo taken this morning).

Awesome!

Not a traditional style, and still it has harmony.

I like it, too bad the right branch is not a bit lower

yeah bought it for $25 at a local show and the main structure was basically done so opted for a Pierneef style.

a little up date. Canopies are filling in nice. looking to try and lower the right canopy next. lower left still not growing much although i am letting the branches elongate then will cut back to desired length once i get some girth. (sorry not a great photo with the shadows)

glad to see this still alive!

Have you considered allowing the main central canopy to grow up a little bit more, and create a bit of space between the one on the right?
