Sorry to here that jamie .

Im thinking of air layering the top off this tree but i dont think it will leave much foliage for an apex .
would i be ok to re pot and layer in the same season.?
i am going to try and draw up a few ideas for the style of this tree. will try and get them posted

yep, it has happened so just have to go on.

where I would layer on this one would leave plenty to work with for an apex. it would also allow light to hit the inner branching and you could get back budding.
SHOHIN YAKUZA!!!
:twisted: taking the top half of trees of since 2005! :twisted:
and growing trees for the future generations! 50+ year plans :D
