Hahaha dammit lol
It does look more like a conifer don't it ,is it the branch placement ? I'm really just sketching to get an idea where the foliage might be but I suppose it will reflect on what the tree will look like , any tips on how to see this more like a Hawthorn ?
I like your tree, looking forward to your final decision. I would not cut anything and see what the tree develops on new branches, then start thinking what to do with it. Just my thoughts
Ok I think I've got it now lol thanks kristof I'll try make another sketch
Thanks Indo Andreas , i will wait till next year before cutting anything , im just training my eye to" see the tree within the tree" for now there are buds growing all over the top half of the tree and on the other small trunks but I am hoping it will develop more lower down on the main trunk .
