When I cover it up on the photo, the tree comes together, for me.
The same for my eyes. I think with a little of the bulk taken out of the top lefthand side foliage pads would make a big difference to the tree. :imo:
“Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless - like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be like water, my friend.”

Regards, Sidd.

Hi Allan,
My unprofessional opinion is to remove or reduce the further left apex/branch aswell as the small little one under the left one. The main apex and the right one just needs proper ramification, there are to many small straight branches and some branches have several starting at the same spot.
Well done for the three years though! :cool:
I do think this would make a nice work shop tree

Regards
Mick
