Hi Alpine,
Do you plan to keep it that size or grow it a bit higher? At this size the jin looks too big and overpowering to me. If it was mine I would reduce the jin a bit. :2c:
Cheers, Frank.

I like seeing how someone transforms a radiata. I like what you've done with it so far. Keep us posted how it tracks :tu:

Hi Frank , it is a bit high but I don't plan on keeping it . A new owner might want to hack it down or grow the tree up .

HI Keels , I like the challenge of transforming anything worthless into something worthwhile . Got plenty of spare time so I might as well hack a few yamadori up and hopefully make them appealing to someone else .

Cheers Fella's . Alpine
