Its all about timing Sno, i was just about to post it up and there is your comment.Sno wrote:Hi Bohdi I think the change makes a more interesting dynamic tree , even though I appreciated the ' Ent ' . It's a really great trunk the last photo doesn't do it justice ,too much shadow hiding the narliness . It would be great to see this tree next to your A la naturale .

This is the other Querus i am playing with also a trunk of great character. This is the first styling of lower branching and only the mains. It has only ever been cut and grown as i was walking past it on my way to the Bonsai area. I will now develop it and next year maybe even a pot for it.
It's a damned good thing i am good looking 
and can get away away with this sort of stuff. Both trees are collected Yamadori and old but have only been in training a short while. If you are going to ground grow them you will need to do root work on them every couple of years.
Very good thing.
