Beautiful tree Jamie :-) Congrats :-)

Ever thought about lowering the left apex? For me It is too close the height of the right one

thanks guys! :D

its good to know it is heading the way it should!

definately gonna lower the left apex now, it wont take long to regrow it and that apex will make a nice little shohin in itself. I do like the virt I have done and it has lead me to lowerin it. It takes it from good to smashing :lol: (i know I said it myself lol). I like the idea of it as it takes the tree to a new style, father, mother and son. the two parents staying close and the son drifting as he grows up.

cheers guys :D
SHOHIN YAKUZA!!!

gday crew :D

thanks waltron. I think I need to let it grow out a bit more now, just took the apex off the left hand trunk, will need a few months to fill back in. wont take long though :D

I reckon it will be a much better tree now :D

I'd love to see how this tree is looking now if you still have it? Great job.
