Here's the tree in full, before I styled it tonight:
Taking advantage of the small leaves, I'd like to make it a shohin. So, here's the tree after some pruning tonight:
Feel free to leave any comments!

Hi, I am not familiar with this variety, looks like a great tiny leaf, great addition. If it were mine I would reduce the main cut a it more, concaving it a bit so that it heals without making a lump. cheers, Ash
