I have had this tree for quite some time and I have been trying to develop the “hanging branch” for a few years, probably unsuccessful as you can see. I haven’t given up hope but it has been a struggle. In the coming months I will separate the foliage pads a bit more to give definition to the overall look and thin the crown more as well.

This side was chosen because it shows a wide base and some movement in the trunk, however I am considering altering the front to this new angle. I will further consider this before the next major work and probably consult with a few bonsai friends for their opinions.
