Not quite the progress I was hoping for. Struggling to get dense foliage and it was getting very leggy instead instead.

Also due to my inexperience with bonsai I've learnt the hard way about having to rotate trees. Don't get the best sun in my yard and never rotated my trees so this tree and my azalea really suffered. The back of the trees pretty much have all died away.

Anyway here's a new photo of the crepe myrtle. Any advice on improving this tree for next season would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
