Re: new bougy
The bottom picture is definitely not the front. [he he]. Relax, wait until the little beast starts to shoot before trying to decide how you are going to style it. And remember, the shoots are not really attached to the trunk with super glue so be very careful when you start to wire them. I was trying to put a thin wire around a new shoot on a similar trunk and ended up with the wire on the tree and the shoot in my hand. And I was being careful.
All I would recommend at this stage is to let it start shooting vigorously and rub off the shoots you know you don't want and let the rest get to the stage they need wiring and then repost. But the trunk is quite nice, some lovely movement there.
