Hi Kirky Been a long time getting them to this stage but I'm happy with the progress.
Hi TimS both methods have advantages with all species , I just dont have the time nor the patience to wire all the tree's here .
Mother nature didn't use wire only the elements clip and grow mimics the elements better .
Some tree's look good manicured but then so does topiary
Wiring might refine ramification and shape but doesn't look natural to me , more like manufactured and manicured .
Each to there own on that one .
Cheers Ian
