So now a few words again, from this previous pictures to the following are about two and half month. Flowers being removed as soon they started to show. The reason is that my focus stays on branching. Any new coming twig is clipped after the first 2-3 leave sets are out. My aim is to build the crown low as possible. the new branches are not wired anymore. As soon the main wire starts growing in, it comes off. no more wiring after that except if necessary. This are all trees from all four sides. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

This was the last batch of pictures.
Soil - Lava sand 1-5mm - compost ratio 3/1 fertiliser fluid once a week. cutting daily if necessary.
Carving with the "terrier" after applied Lime Sulphur.
Wire always a number bigger then necessary to avoid thin cutlines in branches. De-foilage always before wiring. afterwards once a month until desired branches grown. Day temperature 24-32 degree celsius. 12 hours full sun.
Any question and critics are welcome

I did look into it with a friendly lady in Africa, who has a similar batch.
Just the quarantaine costs would be prohibitive. Naturally, if someone in Netherlands / Germany / Belgium has facilities we could start discussing ;)

Do they have a licence to quarantaine trees? Because that is the trick. Otherwise they stand at customs for 3-6 months..

Netherlands is tiny. Anywhere is possible to reach within 3 hours.
